- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Mosswood
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in Mosswood, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Mosswood questions
When can you do it?

Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I have to be there?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What happens next?
