Non-slip bath coating in Tutbury, done in place
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Tutbury
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
