Common questions in Great Oakley
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Great Oakley
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and people most often call us about safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
When to call us in Great Oakley
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Great Oakley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Work done at your home or business
- Generally one visit, start to finish

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
