What affects the price in Newington Green
There is no charge for travel to Newington Green. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Non-slip bath coating in Newington Green, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can normally put it right, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us) alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Newington Green
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
What we’re called out for in Newington Green
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Before you book anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
For landlords and businesses
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.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
