Common problems we fix in Thurnscoe
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
- Aftercare advice
About our non-slip bath coating in Thurnscoe
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 resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Thurnscoe
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
What affects the price in Thurnscoe
There is no charge for travel to Thurnscoe. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
