Non-slip bath coating in Totnes without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can generally put it right.
Homes around Totnes range from cottages to newer houses. Older ones may still have cast iron or steel baths, which are well worth keeping, and newer ones typically have acrylic.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we are called out for in Totnes
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Church of St Mary, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and non-slip bath coating gives it years more use.

What else we do in Totnes
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Totnes
Can you repair baths and shower trays in a rental near Totnes station?
Yes, we frequently work between tenancies, and several addresses can be quoted together.
Is it worth repairing old baths and shower trays in a period home in Totnes?
Normally, yes. Older baths and shower trays are frequently worth repairing rather than replacing. Photos let us tell you what we would recommend.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What we can’t put right
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
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths

What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
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 you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Around Totnes, arranging several trades for a replacement can take a while. A repair needs just one visit.
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Totnes. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare. Around Totnes, access and parking are normally easy. Mention a lane, gate or long drive when you book.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- 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
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
