About our non-slip bath coating in Clementhorpe
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.
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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
FAQs for Clementhorpe
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across York.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Repair or replace in Clementhorpe?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Clementhorpe?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people

What non-slip bath coating costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Clementhorpe. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
