How we handle non-slip bath coating in Letchworth
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 resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right, on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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 will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
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 adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Common questions in Letchworth
Do you cover Letchworth?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Letchworth. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What affects the price in Letchworth
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Letchworth
For anyone letting property in or around Letchworth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
