About our non-slip bath coating in Stoke St Mary
It suits 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 resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them
We don’t charge extra for travel to Stoke St Mary. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TA3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 usually cheaper.
Repairing versus replacing in Stoke St Mary
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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
