Non-slip bath coating at your home in Gosforth
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Other services in Gosforth
Gosforth: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Newcastle upon Tyne. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
The process
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
Common problems we fix in Gosforth
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No extra charge for your area
