How we handle non-slip bath coating in Hampstead Garden Suburb
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, 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
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairing versus replacing in Hampstead Garden Suburb
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

FAQs for Hampstead Garden Suburb
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are there extra charges for Hampstead Garden Suburb?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Hampstead Garden Suburb?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
