Non-slip bath coating in Dores without replacing anything
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and people most frequently call us about safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Dores and across Highland. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
When to call us in Dores
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How your room will be protected
- How soon you can use it again

The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IV2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Repairing versus replacing in Dores
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Landlord and trade work in Dores
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What affects the price in Dores
There’s no charge for travel to Dores. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
