How we handle non-slip bath coating in Carr Hill
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 worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
Every job is backed for twelve months in Carr Hill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

FAQs for Carr Hill
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Newcastle upon Tyne, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We don’t charge extra for travel to Carr Hill. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
For a price in Carr Hill, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Carr Hill?
Smooth surfaces are 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.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
