Non-Slip Bath Coating for Dingwall homes
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays at your home in Dingwall, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Dingwall
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repairing versus replacing in Dingwall
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Dingwall. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d 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

How we price non-slip bath coating
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Dingwall?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Before you book anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
