Anti-slip floor tiling in Rainham and Wennington. Slip-rated tiles for bathrooms, wet rooms, kitchens and outside steps, chosen for where they go.
A polished tile that looks great in the showroom can be lethal on a wet Rainham bathroom floor. Tiles are tested and rated for slip resistance. The right rating depends on the room. A shower floor or wet room needs far more grip than a hallway. For older relatives, a grippy floor often matters more than the look. Smaller tiles also help, because the extra grout lines add grip underfoot.
In Rainham, anti-slip floors are often asked for when a bathroom is adapted for an older relative. They are also asked for on back steps that get slippery in wet weather. The cost depends on the floor area, the tile chosen and any work to level the floor or add a fall. A photo of the room and a rough measurement is enough to quote.
We bring tile samples to Rainham homes so you can feel the grip underfoot, wet and dry, before choosing anything for the floor.

A bathroom floor takes two to three days including the grout. Outside steps take a day or two. The adhesive must set before the floor is walked on, and the grout cures before it gets wet.
