Non-slip bath coating at your home in Kirkby Woodhouse
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What else we do in Kirkby Woodhouse
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kirkby Woodhouse questions
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Kirkby Woodhouse included. Travel is included in the price.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Kirkby Woodhouse?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
