Non-slip bath coating in Southville, done in place
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 are frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and acrylic baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Southville
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Southville
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Questions from Southville
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you come to Southville?
We do. We send a technician to Southville for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Southville use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
