Non-slip bath coating in East Village, done in place
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in East Village
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for East Village. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in East Village
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

East Village questions
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in East Village?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Do you cover the entire of Devon?
The entire UK, including all of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
