Non-Slip Bath Coating for Clouston homes

Non-slip bath coating in Clouston, done in place
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. Our repair technicians work on enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Clouston
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
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 over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- One visit for most repairs
- Everything repaired in place
- Fixed prices from your pictures

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Clouston
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across the Orkney Islands.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Clouston
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether a trained technician does the job
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
