A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Oldham
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can normally put it right, on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Oldham questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Oldham included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

- Outdoor surfaces

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
