Non-slip bath & shower coating in Brixton, Devon
Non-slip bath coating in and around Brixton: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Brixton
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We’re often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Brixton
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Brixton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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 adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
