Can I fix it myself?
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 photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
FAQs for Hatfield Hyde
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you cover Hatfield Hyde?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hatfield Hyde from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Hatfield Hyde?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Hatfield Hyde included. Travel is included in the price.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
