Non-slip bath coating in Rothbury without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We are often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northumberland. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Rothbury

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you come to Rothbury?

Common problems we fix in Rothbury

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
