Non-slip bath coating in Akeld without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can usually put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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 will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths

Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
If you are in Akeld and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Questions from Akeld
Which areas do you work in?
All of Northumberland, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
