What affects the price in Stotfold
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

About our non-slip bath coating in Stotfold
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- What preparation is included
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Stotfold questions
Are there extra charges for Stotfold?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Hertfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
