Non-slip bath & shower coating in Marton, Middlesbrough
We travel to Marton for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
Non-slip bath coating in Marton, done in place
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Marton
We don’t charge extra for travel to Marton. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Marton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Marton
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

FAQs for Marton
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Marton included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
