About our non-slip bath coating in Castledykes
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can help, on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and resurfaced baths alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Castledykes and across Dumfries and Galloway. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What affects the price in Castledykes
We charge the same across the UK, including Castledykes. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Castledykes. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Castledykes
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
