Non-slip bath & shower coating in Kelton Hill, Dumfries and Galloway
Non-slip bath coating in and around Kelton Hill: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
About our non-slip bath coating in Kelton Hill
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dumfries and Galloway and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Nothing taken out or refitted

The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Questions from Kelton Hill
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
