Non-slip bath coating in Newington Butts without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, in resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Why Newington Butts customers choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We don’t charge extra for travel to Newington Butts. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SE1 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Common questions in Newington Butts

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Newington Butts?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
