Non-slip bath & shower coating in Dreghorn, North Ayrshire
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays in Dreghorn, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Dreghorn
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What else we do in Dreghorn
What we are called out for in Dreghorn
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- How to look after the finish
- How your room will be protected
- What prep work is covered
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Dreghorn questions
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Dreghorn?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
