Common questions in Walker
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Walker and the rest of Newcastle upon Tyne. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Newcastle upon Tyne.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Walker?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
About our non-slip bath coating in Walker
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Walker as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Fixed prices from your photos
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Rooms protected and left tidy

What non-slip bath coating costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Walker
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- What preparation is included
- How to care for the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
