Non-Slip Bath Coating for Kingsteps homes
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays for homes and businesses in Kingsteps and across Highland. Free, fixed quotes from your photos.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Highland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Kingsteps
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access

Related advice
Repair or replace in Kingsteps?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How we price non-slip bath coating
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Kingsteps, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Questions from Kingsteps
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Kingsteps?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Before you book anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
