Non-slip bath coating in Shadwell without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Shadwell as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- 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, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What else we do in Shadwell
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One visit for most repairs
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
Read our pricing.
Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Shadwell
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you work in Shadwell?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Shadwell and the rest of Greater London. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Shadwell?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
