Non-slip bath coating at your home in Islip
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can usually put it right.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Islip: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Islip is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover Islip?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Islip from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
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.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
