About our non-slip bath coating in Pridden
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. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Pridden. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Pridden. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
Most customers in Pridden get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.

- Worn-out textured areas

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Repair or replace in Pridden?
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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pridden as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
FAQs for Pridden
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Pridden.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
