How we handle non-slip bath coating in Maudlin
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Maudlin: your questions answered
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Are there extra charges for Maudlin?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Maudlin?
We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your PO18 postcode.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
When to call us in Maudlin
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How changes to the job are handled
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Maudlin, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Maudlin. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
