Non-slip bath & shower coating in Heworth, Newcastle upon Tyne
Local non-slip bath coating for Heworth: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Everything repaired in place

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Heworth
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Advice
Common questions in Heworth
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are 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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: 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. Quotes are free and no obligation.
