How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job.
Related advice
Non-slip bath coating in Lower Caversham without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What we’re called out for in Lower Caversham
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Questions from Lower Caversham
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Lower Caversham?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you work in Lower Caversham?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Lower Caversham from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Repair or replace in Lower Caversham?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
