About our non-slip bath coating in Bladnoch
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bladnoch as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Bladnoch
The alternatives are 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What else we do in Bladnoch
What non-slip bath coating costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
Most clients in Bladnoch get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)

Bladnoch questions
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Bladnoch included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.
