About our non-slip bath coating in Heatherfield
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.
For a rural address like Heatherfield, we plan the journey and the visit in advance. Let us know about access and where to park, and we’ll take care of the rest.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When to call us in Heatherfield
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Common reasons people in Heatherfield contact us include:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
For older houses around Heatherfield, near landmarks such as St John the Evangelist, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and non-slip bath coating gives it years more use.

Common questions in Heatherfield
Do you cover villages like Heatherfield?
We do: Heatherfield is covered like any town. Just mention any tricky access.
My house in Heatherfield is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
In most cases: period pieces can be hard to match if replaced. Send pictures and we’ll advise.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Heatherfield?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. For a rural home like those around Heatherfield, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while non-slip bath coating is one trip.
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

- A picture taken from further back

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes. Somewhere as small as Heatherfield, access is generally the main thing to plan. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
