Drypool and nearby
Drypool is about 1 mile south-east of Kingston upon Hull, in Hull. Whether you’re in the middle of Drypool or on the outskirts, we offer exactly the same service: a fixed quote, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Drypool is one of 22 places in Hull where we work. Our jobs stretch from Drypool to Leeds (about 50 miles away).
Our technicians cover all of the HU1, HU9 and HU2 postcode area and the streets around it. Local streets include Scale Lane, High Street and Chapel Lane, and we cover them all. Nearby, we also work in Wilmington (1 mile north), Summergangs (1 mile north-east), Kingston upon Hull (1 mile north-west), Stepney (1 mile north-west) and Stoneferry (2 miles north).

Also close by are St Mary's Church (less than half a mile west), Ron Dearing UTC (0.6 miles west) and Pearson Park (1.5 miles north-west).

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Drypool
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, across enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

- Enamelled baths

Drypool questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Drypool as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Repair or replace in Drypool?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Read our prices page.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Drypool
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
