Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Holloway
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What affects the price in Holloway
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll 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
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What we are called out for in Holloway
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Look out for these signs:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
- How changes to the job are handled
Should you replace it?
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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
