How we handle non-slip bath coating in Headley
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Headley and across West Berkshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Headley
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in West Berkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Common questions in Headley
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Headley and the rest of West Berkshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Repair or replace in Headley?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we are called out for in Headley
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day
- How changes to the job are handled
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What affects the price in Headley
We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Headley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
