About our non-slip bath coating in Throston
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Throston and across Hartlepool. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Throston
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Throston use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Questions from Throston
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you cover the whole of Hartlepool?
We work UK-wide, so Throston is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What non-slip bath coating costs
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
Most customers in Throston get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace in Throston?
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 non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
