Repair or replace in Fernhill?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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 pictures, as it can add time.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Fernhill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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.

- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths

How we price non-slip bath coating
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
