About our non-slip bath coating in Blackrod
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackrod
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Blackrod: your questions answered
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do you cover the whole of Bolton?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Repairing versus replacing in Blackrod
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- We leave the room as we found it
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Work done at your home or business

What we’re called out for in Blackrod
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Aftercare advice
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What else we do in Blackrod
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- 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, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
