Non-slip bath coating in Baretrees, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. 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.

Common questions in Baretrees
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you cover the whole of Oldham?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Baretrees?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people

- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Other services in Baretrees
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Baretrees
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Baretrees. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking
- No need to remove anything

How we price non-slip bath coating
There is no charge for travel to Baretrees. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What a repair can’t fix
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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
