Non-slip bath coating in Oxton, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common problems we fix in Oxton
Smooth surfaces are 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:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Oxton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
Read our prices page.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
