Non-slip bath & shower coating in Bogston, Inverclyde
Our technicians come to Bogston for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Non-slip bath coating in Bogston without replacing anything
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. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)

Bogston questions
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover Bogston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bogston and the rest of Inverclyde. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Bogston
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
