Questions from Rowstock
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Rowstock?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OX11 postcode.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Non-slip bath coating in Rowstock without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Rowstock as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Rowstock
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Landlord and trade work in Rowstock
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Rowstock?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
How we price non-slip bath coating
There is no area surcharge for Rowstock. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Rowstock, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
