Non-slip bath coating in Winkleigh, done in place
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re frequently asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.
For a rural address like Winkleigh, we plan the journey and the visit in advance. Let us know about access and where to park, and we will do the rest.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. In an older home in a village like Winkleigh, replacing a bath or shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Winkleigh. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- No need to remove anything
- Same prices wherever you are
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Winkleigh homes and their baths

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss 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 anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead. Somewhere as small as Winkleigh, access is usually the main thing to plan. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
