Non-slip bath & shower coating in North End, Portsmouth
Local non-slip bath coating for North End: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in North End
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, across wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for North End. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including North End and the rest of Portsmouth. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Landlord and trade work in North End
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Portsmouth and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
If you manage property in North End, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
