How we handle non-slip bath coating in Doddinghurst Common
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, in acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Common problems we fix in Doddinghurst Common
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Comparing quotes
- What aftercare is recommended
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
