How we handle non-slip bath coating in Down St Mary
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repairing versus replacing in Down St Mary

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
What non-slip bath coating costs
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Down St Mary, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Down St Mary questions
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover Down St Mary?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Down St Mary for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Down St Mary?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
