How we handle non-slip bath coating in Oxcroft
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Oxcroft and across Derbyshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How we price non-slip bath coating
We charge the same across the UK, including Oxcroft. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Repair or replace in Oxcroft?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Questions from Oxcroft

Do you come to Oxcroft?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Oxcroft. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Oxcroft?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
