How we handle non-slip bath coating in South Side
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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 will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
South Side: your questions answered

Repairing versus replacing in South Side
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
