Non-slip bath coating in Low Eighton without replacing anything
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can help, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and shower trays alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Low Eighton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
Low Eighton: your questions answered
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Do you come to Low Eighton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Low Eighton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you cover the whole of Gateshead?
Across the UK, and that includes Low Eighton. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Repairing versus replacing in Low Eighton
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your photos

When we would advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Most customers in Low Eighton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlord and trade work in Low Eighton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Common problems we fix in Low Eighton
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
