About our non-slip bath coating in Skeldyke
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, across enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Skeldyke and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Skeldyke questions
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Skeldyke?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Skeldyke from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Skeldyke
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Skeldyke, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
How we price non-slip bath coating
We do not charge extra for travel to Skeldyke. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PE20 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
