Non-Slip Bath Coating for Brick End homes
We travel to Brick End for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
How the visit works
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 morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Brick End
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Questions from Brick End
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
What non-slip bath coating costs
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Brick End
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.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
