Non-slip bath & shower coating in Mile End, Essex

- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
About our non-slip bath coating in Mile End
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- 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
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

About Mile End
Mile End is about 2 miles north of Colchester, in Essex. From the centre of Mile End to the outlying streets, the service is the same: a fixed quote, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Mile End is one of 644 places in Essex where we work. You can also see our page for London, about 51 miles away.
Jobs in CO4 and CO6 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. From Fords Lane, Elina Road and Boxted Road or a nearby road, a technician can come to you. If you are just outside Mile End, we cover Great Horkesley (1 mile north-west), West Bergholt (2 miles west), Little Horkesley (3 miles north-west), Fordham Heath (3 miles west) and Fordham (4 miles west). We also work in nearby towns such as Braintree (14 miles west), Clacton-on-Sea (14 miles south-east), Witham (13 miles south-west), Halstead (11 miles west), Heybridge (15 miles south-west) and Tiptree (9 miles south-west).
Landmarks near Mile End
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Myland Community Primary School, Bull Meadow and Gilberd School and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Colchester station, about 0.9 miles south. Nearby you will also find Natural History Museum (1.7 miles south) and Severalls Hospital (under half a mile north). For a walk, there is Westhouse Wood.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Mile End?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people

What non-slip bath coating costs
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Mile End: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Mile End?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mile End as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
