Trusted non-slip bath coating in Littletown

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Littletown

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no area surcharge for Littletown. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back

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 you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Acrylic baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Shower trays

FAQs for Littletown

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you cover Littletown?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Littletown and the rest of County Durham. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Take a look at our prices page.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DH6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
