Non-Slip Bath Coating in Appley Bridge
We travel to Appley Bridge for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Non-slip bath coating in Appley Bridge, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Appley Bridge
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why Appley Bridge clients choose us

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Appley Bridge?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Appley Bridge questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you cover Appley Bridge?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Appley Bridge and the rest of Wigan. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
