Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it

- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Non-slip bath coating in Low Ackworth, done in place
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Related advice
Low Ackworth: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Wakefield.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Low Ackworth
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Look out for any of the following:
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Aftercare advice
- How the colour is matched
Repairing versus replacing in Low Ackworth
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
