About our non-slip bath coating in Nettlebed
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re frequently asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, across acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Nettlebed and across Oxfordshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Nettlebed?
Smooth surfaces are 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.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who will actually do the work
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
What affects the price in Nettlebed
We charge the same across the UK, including Nettlebed. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Nettlebed, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Nettlebed, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Nettlebed clients choose us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No extra charge for your area
- Work done at your home or business

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
FAQs for Nettlebed
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you come to Nettlebed?
We do. We send a technician to Nettlebed for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
