Non-slip bath coating for Barnsley homes

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Barnsley

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Shower trays
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Resurfaced baths

Barnsley questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Barnsley included. Travel is included in the price.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Advice

What we’re called out for in Barnsley

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure

Here we cover the S71, S70, S75 and S36 postcode area. From Market Hill, Peel Square and Market Street or a nearby road, a technician can come to you.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Barnsley and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repairing versus replacing in Barnsley

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Work done at your home or business

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
