Non-slip bath coating in Melbourn without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Melbourn as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Melbourn questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
