Non-slip bath coating in Newstead without replacing anything
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. 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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Newstead?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Questions from Newstead
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover Newstead?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Newstead from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
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.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Prices and what affects them
There is no charge for travel to Newstead. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Newstead and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
