Non-slip bath coating in Ferrensby without replacing anything

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Questions from Ferrensby

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across North Yorkshire.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Ferrensby

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Ferrensby

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ferrensby. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Ferrensby

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
