- Worn-out textured areas

How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Non-slip bath coating in Upper Milton, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Upper Milton
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Upper Milton and the rest of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
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.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What we are called out for in Upper Milton
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Upper Milton. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Upper Milton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
