Non-slip bath & shower coating in Foxhole, Cornwall
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in Foxhole and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Foxhole
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Foxhole. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
