Non-slip bath coating at your home in Oakmere
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cheshire West and Chester. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Oakmere
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Oakmere
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Look out for any of the following:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

There’s no charge for travel to Oakmere. The price comes down to:

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
