About our non-slip bath coating in Skelbrooke
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re frequently asked to fix worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Skelbrooke questions
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you work in Skelbrooke?
We do. We send a technician to Skelbrooke for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do you cover the whole of Doncaster?
The whole UK, including all of Doncaster. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Skelbrooke use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
What non-slip bath coating costs
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What we’re called out for in Skelbrooke
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.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the price covers travel
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Repairing versus replacing in Skelbrooke
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
