Repairing versus replacing in Oak Tree
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath 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 Oak Tree. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Oak Tree customers choose us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No need to remove anything

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Oak Tree
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. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can generally put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.

- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people

What non-slip bath coating costs
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Oak Tree
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Darlington and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
