Non-slip bath coating near Oxlode

Non-slip bath coating in Oxlode, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Oxlode and across Cambridgeshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. 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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Oxlode, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not 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.

Common questions in Oxlode

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CB6 postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you work in Oxlode?

We do. We send a technician to Oxlode for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There’s no charge for travel to Oxlode. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Oxlode

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage
