- Worn-out textured areas

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Tiffield
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Fixed prices from your photos
- One visit for most repairs

Non-slip bath coating in Tiffield, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Tiffield. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people

What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Tiffield questions
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
