Non-slip bath coating in Mevagissey without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PL26 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mevagissey as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot 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’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Mevagissey

  • Shower trays
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Enamelled baths

DIY kit or professional 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Repairing versus replacing in Mevagissey

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. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • One price list for the entire UK

See our prices page.

When to call us in Mevagissey

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Before booking anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
