How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Oakley
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on shower trays, enamelled baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Oakley?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Oakley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- One price list for the whole UK
- No need to remove anything
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Questions from Oakley
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What affects the price in Oakley
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 before you book.
