How we handle non-slip bath coating in Heatherycleugh
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. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Heatherycleugh: your questions answered
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across County Durham.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can tenants book a repair?

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 in Heatherycleugh?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price non-slip bath coating
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
