About our non-slip bath coating in Newchurch
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 worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can usually put it right, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Newchurch?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas

Newchurch questions
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are there extra charges for Newchurch?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Newchurch?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newchurch
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What affects the price in Newchurch
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Repairing versus replacing in Newchurch
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Newchurch. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- One visit for most repairs

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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 frequently lifts.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
