Non-slip bath & shower coating in Swaithe, Barnsley
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in Swaithe and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
About our non-slip bath coating in Swaithe
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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.
Questions from Swaithe
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you cover the entire of Barnsley?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Swaithe
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are

When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
How we price non-slip bath coating
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your S70 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- 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, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
