Non-slip bath coating in Rawcliffe, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can normally put it right, on acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us) alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Questions from Rawcliffe
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you cover Rawcliffe?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Rawcliffe and the rest of York. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rawcliffe use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Work done at your home or business
- Everything repaired in place
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
