DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Non-slip bath coating in Old Whittington, done in place
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
