Non-slip bath coating in Oxhill 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. Our technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What affects the price in Oxhill
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oxhill use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Questions from Oxhill
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Oxhill included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
