FAQs for Riccall
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you cover the whole of York?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Riccall. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Non-slip bath coating in Riccall without replacing anything
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Riccall and across York. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
