Non-slip bath coating in Pembles Cross, 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. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in Pembles Cross
We do not charge extra for travel to Pembles Cross. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When to call us in Pembles Cross

- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

More services for Pembles Cross
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
