Non-slip bath & shower coating in Kenton, Newcastle upon Tyne

About our non-slip bath coating in Kenton
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can usually put it right, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
What affects the price in Kenton
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
For a price in Kenton, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Kenton: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Are there extra charges for Kenton?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you cover the entire of Newcastle upon Tyne?
Across the UK, so Kenton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Landlord and trade work in Kenton
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Repairing versus replacing in Kenton
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Work done at your home or business
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
See our pricing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
