Non-Slip Bath Coating for Ardfern homes
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in Ardfern and the surrounding area, usually in one visit.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ardfern
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When to call us in Ardfern
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Look out for these signs:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
What affects the price in Ardfern
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Ardfern
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you cover Ardfern?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Ardfern from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
