Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
About our non-slip bath coating in Trevaughan
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Trevaughan. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
