Non-slip bath coating at your home in Wheatley
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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

Landlord and trade work in Wheatley
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage

Repairing versus replacing in Wheatley
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas

Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
