Trusted non-slip bath coating in Stokenham

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Stokenham

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can generally put it right, on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When to call us in Stokenham

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Stokenham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Stokenham clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our full price list.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Resurfaced baths

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Common questions in Stokenham

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
