Non-slip bath coating in Eythorne without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Common problems we fix in Eythorne

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Eythorne. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
