Non-slip bath coating at your home in Spittal
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 resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Spittal use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

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

- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths

Can you repair several things at once?

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Prices and what affects them
There is no charge for travel to Spittal. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Spittal. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
