Non-slip bath coating in Tawstock, done in place
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What affects the price in Tawstock
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, 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.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Tawstock questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you come to Tawstock?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Tawstock and the rest of Devon. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tawstock
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tawstock as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Tawstock. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Rooms protected and left tidy
