About our non-slip bath coating in North Gosforth
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Before we arrive

- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common questions in North Gosforth
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in North Gosforth?
We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Newcastle upon Tyne.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

When to call us in North Gosforth
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
- What preparation is included
- How to care for the finish
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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.

What affects the price in North Gosforth

- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NE3 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
