Non-slip bath coating in Wark without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Wark questions
Can I add another job to the visit?

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Wark?
Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your TD12 postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Northumberland.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Common problems we fix in Wark
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Who turns up on the day
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths

Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Wark, and we will reply with a fixed price.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
