About our non-slip bath coating in Southford
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).
Every job is backed for twelve months in Southford and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Take a look at our pricing.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Southford as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What we cannot put right
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
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Southford: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
