Advice
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Reading
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Reading and across Wokingham. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.
How we price non-slip bath coating
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- No extra charge for your area
- A fixed quote before you book
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Reading, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Common questions in Reading
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
