How we handle non-slip bath coating in Wylam
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Other services in Wylam
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
How we price non-slip bath coating
We don’t charge extra for travel to Wylam. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Wylam, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Wylam
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you cover Wylam?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wylam and the rest of Northumberland. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Wylam, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
