Non-Slip Bath Coating for Easington Lane homes
Our repair technicians come to Easington Lane for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.

About our non-slip bath coating in Easington Lane
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. We work on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Sunderland. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Easington Lane
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Easington Lane, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What affects the price in Easington Lane
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

FAQs for Easington Lane
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
