Non-Slip Bath Coating for Lanivet homes
We travel to Lanivet for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Lanivet
- No extra charge for your area
- Fixed prices from your photos

- No need to remove anything

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Lanivet
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our technicians work on shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Lanivet and across Cornwall. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Lanivet questions
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you work in Lanivet?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Lanivet. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Lanivet
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lanivet use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Common problems we fix in Lanivet
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Look out for these signs:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
Questions to ask before booking
- How your room will be protected
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

- How to look after the finish
What affects the price in Lanivet
We charge the same across the UK, including Lanivet. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
