Non-slip bath & shower coating in Cranhill, Glasgow

Non-slip bath coating in Cranhill without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and people most often call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
Repairing versus replacing in Cranhill
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
