Sorn: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
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.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Sorn?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Non-slip bath coating in Sorn without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays, and people most often call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sorn as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.
What we are called out for in Sorn
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- How your room will be protected
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
