Non-Slip Bath Coating in Leigham

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Leigham
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Leigham
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you come to Leigham?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Leigham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Repairing versus replacing in Leigham
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Leigham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
When to call us in Leigham

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
