Non-slip bath coating in Brockley, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Brockley as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Brockley. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Brockley questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you come to Brockley?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Brockley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Brockley?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Shower trays
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Enamelled baths
  • Resurfaced baths

When to call us in Brockley

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How to care for the finish
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Brockley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
