Non-slip bath coating at your home in Tideford
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
If you manage property in Tideford, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Questions from Tideford
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can

What affects the price in Tideford
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Tideford
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
- How to care for the finish
- If travel is included in the price
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Tideford
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
