Non-slip bath & shower coating in Whiteleas, Sunderland
Non-slip bath coating in Whiteleas without the cost of replacing. Get a fixed price from your photos, then book a visit.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Whiteleas
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
For a price in Whiteleas, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare

- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
