About our non-slip bath coating in Latherford
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Questions from Latherford
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
