About our non-slip bath coating in Darfield
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can generally put it right, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Barnsley and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Darfield use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
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. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
