Non-Slip Bath Coating for Tufnell Park homes
We travel to Tufnell Park for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Tufnell Park
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. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right, on acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us) alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Questions from Tufnell Park
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Tufnell Park?
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.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace in Tufnell Park?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
