Non-Slip Bath Coating in Ellon
Non-slip bath coating in and around Ellon: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Ellon
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can help, on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and shower trays alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What affects the price in Ellon
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- Access to the area
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you are in Ellon and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
