Non-slip bath & shower coating in Little Scotland, Bolton
Our repair technicians come to Little Scotland for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Little Scotland. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Non-slip bath coating in Little Scotland, done in place
It’s popular with 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. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, in wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Little Scotland: your questions answered
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Do you cover the whole of Bolton?
We cover the entire UK, including Little Scotland and the rest of Bolton. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Little Scotland?

- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
How we price non-slip bath coating
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BL6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Scotland
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Scotland use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
