What affects the price in Okus

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price.

About our non-slip bath coating in Okus

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can generally put it right, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays alike.

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. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Okus

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover Okus?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Okus. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairing versus replacing in Okus

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
