How the visit works

- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
How to prepare

- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Newtown
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can typically put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Newtown as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Newtown
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What else we do in Newtown
How we price non-slip bath coating
There’s no charge for travel to Newtown. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
For a price in Newtown, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Newtown questions
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Newtown?
We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
When we would advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
