Non-slip bath coating in Blackfriars, done in place
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We are often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Blackfriars. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blackfriars as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)

Repairing versus replacing in Blackfriars
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Blackfriars. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
