Non-Slip Bath Coating for St Erme homes
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in St Erme and the surrounding area, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- 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, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Non-slip bath coating in St Erme without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our repair technicians work on enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in St Erme and across Cornwall. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

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, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common questions in St Erme
How quickly can you book me in?

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TR4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
