Non-slip bath coating at your home in Norbury
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can usually put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Most customers in Norbury get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Norbury, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
Repairing versus replacing in Norbury
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What affects the price in Norbury
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Norbury: your questions answered
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Norbury?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Are you accredited?

Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Common problems we fix in Norbury
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
