Non-slip bath & shower coating in Ide, Devon
Our repair technicians come to Ide for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Non-slip bath coating in Ide without replacing anything
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common questions in Ide
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you cover the entire of Devon?
We work UK-wide, so Ide is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Repairing versus replacing in Ide
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Usually one visit, start to finish

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Ide
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- Aftercare advice
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long it needs to cure
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ide as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price.
