How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ballater
It’s popular with 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. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing 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
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

FAQs for Ballater
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Repair or replace in Ballater?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When to call us in Ballater
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Before you book anyone

- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What non-slip bath coating costs

- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ballater. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
