Non-slip bath coating in Hough-on-the-Hill without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths alike.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How it 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 any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Hough-on-the-Hill questions
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you come to Hough-on-the-Hill?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hough-on-the-Hill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in Hough-on-the-Hill get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
