Non-slip bath & shower coating in Melling, Lancashire
Non-slip bath coating in and around Melling: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for 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. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Non-slip bath coating in Melling without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
FAQs for Melling

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

How we price non-slip bath coating
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Common problems we fix in Melling
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How changes to the job are handled
- How soon you can use it again

What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
