Non-slip bath coating at your home in Kelvinside
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We’re often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Kelvinside questions
Do you cover the entire of Glasgow?
The entire UK, including all of Glasgow. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kelvinside. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What non-slip bath coating costs
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you are in Kelvinside and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
