Non-Slip Bath Coating in Invergowrie
Our technicians come to Invergowrie for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Invergowrie
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Invergowrie as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

FAQs for Invergowrie
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
