About non-slip bath coating in Highland

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Near you in Inverness

Typical jobs here are in homes near Inverness, Cavell Gardens and Maple Court Hotel, among other places. Inverness’s nearest station is Inverness station, about 0.7 miles north of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Inverness Castle (0.5 miles north) and Inverness Museum and Art Gallery (0.5 miles north). Open spaces near Inverness include Tomnahurich.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Highland. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Common problems we fix in Highland

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Highland

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Highland use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Common questions in Highland

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
