Non-slip bath coating in Wath upon Dearne without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Wath upon Dearne. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wath upon Dearne. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Wath upon Dearne

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

What we are called out for in Wath upon Dearne

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a repair cannot 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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
