Non-slip bath & shower coating in Goonown, Cornwall
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in Goonown and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
You do not 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.
Advice
Non-slip bath coating in Goonown, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Goonown
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Goonown, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Goonown as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Goonown
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Common reasons people in Goonown contact us are:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Goonown questions
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are there extra charges for Goonown?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

Repairing versus replacing in Goonown
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
