Related advice
Non-slip bath coating in Tregony without replacing anything
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in Tregony?

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.

Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you come to Tregony?
We do. We send a technician to Tregony for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
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.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
