Non-slip bath coating in Blackness without replacing anything
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dundee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses

Common questions in Blackness
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you cover the whole of Dundee?
Everywhere in the UK, Blackness included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Questions to ask before you book

- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What aftercare is recommended
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
There is no charge for travel to Blackness. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
