About our non-slip bath coating in Stockcross
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stockcross
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Stockcross questions
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Are there extra charges for Stockcross?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How quickly can you book me in?

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
What affects the price in Stockcross
There’s no area surcharge for Stockcross. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
What we are called out for in Stockcross
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The things clients usually mention when they call include:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How to look after the finish
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the price covers travel
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
