Repairing versus replacing in Tringford
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Non-slip bath coating in Tringford without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs
There’s no area surcharge for Tringford. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Tringford questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you come to Tringford?
We do. We send a technician to Tringford for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
