Non-slip bath & shower coating in World's End, Greater London
Our technicians come to World's End for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Non-slip bath coating in World's End, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

World's End: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SW10 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
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.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
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.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What else we do in World's End
How the visit works

- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in World's End
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The material
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
