About our non-slip bath coating in Melling
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, in shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Melling and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Melling questions
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Melling. Prices don’t change with location.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Repairing versus replacing in Melling
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 adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How we price non-slip bath coating
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
