Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Barkby Thorpe
The coating is clear and textured, 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. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, 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.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 typically the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
