Non-Slip Bath Coating for Donside Village homes
Non-slip bath coating for Donside Village, without a refit. Get a fixed price from your pictures, then book a visit.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Donside Village
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Donside Village and across Aberdeen. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Donside Village. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
