Non-Slip Bath Coating for Scots' Gap homes
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays for homes and businesses in Scots' Gap and across Northumberland. Send photos for a free, fixed quote.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people

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. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why Scots' Gap clients choose us
- One visit for most repairs
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

About our non-slip bath coating in Scots' Gap
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Common problems we fix in Scots' Gap
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who turns up on the day
- How the room is protected while they work
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’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
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

- Wet room floors (ask us)

- 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, typically overnight.

Common questions in Scots' Gap
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For anyone letting property in or around Scots' Gap, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
