Non-slip bath & shower coating in Ellington, Northumberland
Local non-slip bath coating for Ellington: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ellington
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We are frequently asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Ellington
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What else we do in Ellington
What non-slip bath coating costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Ellington. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most customers in Ellington get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What we’re called out for in Ellington
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
