DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we price non-slip bath coating
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Mile End
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

- One price list for the whole UK

Questions from Mile End
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What areas do you cover?
All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Mile End, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
