Advice
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Levenwick
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can help, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

FAQs for Levenwick
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.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you work in Levenwick?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Levenwick from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Common problems we fix in Levenwick
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
Repair or replace in Levenwick?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
How we price non-slip bath coating
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your ZE2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
