You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry

What else we do in Small Way
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Small Way

How we price non-slip bath coating
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
