- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Kelloholm
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we price non-slip bath coating
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Kelloholm. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repairing versus replacing in Kelloholm
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
