Non-slip bath coating at your home in Balgowan
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Balgowan
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Other services in Balgowan
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlord and trade work in Balgowan
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.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Balgowan
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
Repair or replace in Balgowan?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
