Non-slip bath coating in West Down without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EX34 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price

FAQs for West Down
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in West Down?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Do you cover the whole of Devon?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
