Non-slip bath coating at your home in Kirkton
It suits 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’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Kirkton and across Dumfries and Galloway. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage

What non-slip bath coating costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Kirkton. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
