Advice
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Newsholme
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We’re often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, in shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What non-slip bath coating costs
You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newsholme. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
