North Shields questions
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in North Shields?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in North Shields
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, in enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in North Shields as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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 adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)

How we price non-slip bath coating
We do not charge extra for travel to North Shields. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
