About our non-slip bath coating in St Columb Major
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. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in St Columb Major
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Landlord and trade work in St Columb Major
For anyone letting property in or around St Columb Major, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What affects the price in St Columb Major
You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for St Columb Major. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TR9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
