Non-slip bath coating at your home in Grandpont
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We are frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Grandpont: your questions answered
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Grandpont
If you manage property in Grandpont, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oxfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit

How we price non-slip bath coating
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Grandpont, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
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 usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 booking.
