Questions from Sudbury
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Sudbury is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Non-slip bath coating in Sudbury, done in place
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Sudbury?
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 most common problems we’re called about are:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- Who will actually do the work
- How changes to the job are handled
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

Work for landlords and builders
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.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What affects the price in Sudbury
We don’t charge extra for travel to Sudbury. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you’re in Sudbury and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Sudbury, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Sudbury
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
