About our non-slip bath coating in Esh Winning
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can typically put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in Esh Winning
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across County Durham.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths

What affects the price in Esh Winning
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Esh Winning, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
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 that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Esh Winning. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
