The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Wardle. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wardle
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

FAQs for Wardle
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
