It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in New Houghton

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NG19 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

FAQs for New Houghton

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are there extra charges for New Houghton?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in New Houghton?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NG19 postcode.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Common problems we fix in New Houghton

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What to look for in a quote

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Houghton

If you manage property in New Houghton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
