About our non-slip bath coating in Butterknowle
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and acrylic baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Butterknowle
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Repair or replace in Butterknowle?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We leave the room as we found it
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Butterknowle?
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.

- Safety for older or less mobile people

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Prices and what affects them
We don’t charge extra for travel to Butterknowle. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Butterknowle. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
