- Worn-out textured areas

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

How we handle non-slip bath coating in New Town
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll 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 New Town
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repairing versus replacing in New Town
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

FAQs for New Town
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in New Town?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your DL16 postcode.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you work in New Town?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to New Town from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
