Book non-slip bath coating in Oakshott

Oakshott: your questions answered

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Hampshire.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Hampshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

About our non-slip bath coating in Oakshott

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

When to call us in Oakshott

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Common reasons people in Oakshott contact us are:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Our hiring checklist

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Oakshott

  • Resurfaced baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Shower trays
  • Enamelled baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
