Non-slip bath coating in Macclesfield without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We’re often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, in enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Macclesfield
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Macclesfield, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- 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, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What else we do in Macclesfield
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Macclesfield: your questions answered
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
