Non-slip bath coating in Black Bourton, done in place
It suits 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. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Black Bourton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Questions from Black Bourton
Is it worth repairing rather 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.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you cover Black Bourton?
We do. We send a technician to Black Bourton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How we price non-slip bath coating
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Black Bourton?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
