Non-slip bath coating in Dunston, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can usually put it right, on enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How we price non-slip bath coating

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most clients in Dunston get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Dunston

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you come to Dunston?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Dunston and the rest of Derbyshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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 adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Dunston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Derbyshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Shower trays
  • Enamelled baths
  • Acrylic baths

What we are called out for in Dunston

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

People usually call us when they notice one of these:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
