Non-slip bath coating in Thorpe Hamlet without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
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.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Common problems we fix in Thorpe Hamlet
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas

When we would advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not 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

Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
