How we handle non-slip bath coating in Shafton
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Shafton and across Barnsley. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Shafton. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairing versus replacing in Shafton
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 treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

FAQs for Shafton
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you cover the whole of Barnsley?
We cover the entire UK, including Shafton and the rest of Barnsley. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Shafton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
