The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Saunton
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We’re frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Saunton. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
