Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Birstwith and across North Yorkshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Birstwith

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Birstwith?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

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 adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Birstwith. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Birstwith use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Common problems we fix in Birstwith

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When we would advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
