Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Non-slip bath coating in Rough Common without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, 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 fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
