Non-Slip Bath Coating for St Merryn homes
Non-slip bath coating in and around St Merryn: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for St Merryn. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Non-slip bath coating in St Merryn without replacing anything
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, across enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we’re called out for in St Merryn
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Repair or replace in St Merryn?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Work done at your home or business
- One visit for most repairs
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Questions from St Merryn
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Most clients in St Merryn get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlord and trade work in St Merryn
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
