Non-slip bath coating in Ecclesfield without replacing anything

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Sheffield 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 Ecclesfield use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What we are called out for in Ecclesfield

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

Ecclesfield questions

Do you work in Ecclesfield?

We do. We send a technician to Ecclesfield for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Which areas do you work in?

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Related advice

Repair or replace in Ecclesfield?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
