Non-slip bath & shower coating in West Hill, Devon
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in West Hill and the surrounding area, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Non-slip bath coating at your home in West Hill
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in West Hill?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common questions in West Hill
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What non-slip bath coating costs
There is no area surcharge for West Hill. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price 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. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- 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.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
