When to call us in Drayford
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Look out for any of the following:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
For older houses around Drayford, near landmarks such as Church of St Mary, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and non-slip bath coating gives it years more use.

About our non-slip bath coating in Drayford
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. Our repair technicians work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Somewhere as small as Drayford, you will find cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings. Some have heavy cast iron baths or tight bathrooms, and removing a bath from an older house is rarely simple. Non-slip bath coating in place avoids all of that.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Drayford
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there. In a village or hamlet like Drayford, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the non-slip bath coating works exactly as anywhere else.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Replacement in Drayford means trades, travel and waste removal, while non-slip bath coating is one trip.
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What non-slip bath coating costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Drayford. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
