Non-slip bath coating at your home in Haydon Bridge
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Haydon Bridge and across Northumberland. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common problems we fix in Haydon Bridge
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas

Prices and what affects them
We don’t charge extra for travel to Haydon Bridge. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Haydon Bridge. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Haydon Bridge, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Haydon Bridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Related advice
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
