- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas

Non-slip bath coating in Mawdesley without replacing anything
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can usually put it right.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Mawdesley
Instead, you could go for 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What affects the price in Mawdesley
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your L40 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Mawdesley: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you come to Mawdesley?
We do. We send a technician to Mawdesley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
