About our non-slip bath coating in Oaker
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Oaker?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- 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

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Oaker
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Oaker. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

What non-slip bath coating costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Oaker. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Common questions in Oaker
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you cover Oaker?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Oaker. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
If you manage property in Oaker, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
