Non-slip bath coating in Scholes without replacing anything
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. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Scholes: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Do you come to Scholes?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Scholes and the rest of Wigan. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- We leave the room as we found it
See our prices page.
How we price non-slip bath coating
We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
For landlords and businesses
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.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
