Can I fix it myself?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
About our non-slip bath coating in Tilehurst
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Tilehurst and across Oxfordshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common problems we fix in Tilehurst
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

When we would advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tilehurst
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.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tilehurst as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RG31 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- 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
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
