How we handle non-slip bath coating in Thorpe Common
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Thorpe Common and across Rotherham. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
FAQs for Thorpe Common
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Thorpe Common?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Thorpe Common and the rest of Rotherham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
