Non-Slip Bath Coating for Oldford homes
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Oldford. Send photos for a free, fixed quote.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Non-slip bath coating in Oldford without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Oldford and across Somerset. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Common problems we fix in Oldford
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote

- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

What affects the price in Oldford
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We leave the room as we found it
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One price list for the whole UK

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

How the visit works

- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Is repairing better than replacing?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
