Non-slip bath & shower coating in St Martin, Cornwall
We travel to St Martin for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.

Non-slip bath coating in St Martin, done in place
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in St Martin and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in St Martin
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Martin use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Advice
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
