Non-slip bath coating at your home in Tanfield
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Common questions in Tanfield
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Tanfield and the rest of County Durham. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Tanfield?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
