It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, across acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Muirhead questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Are there extra charges for Muirhead?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Muirhead. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What we do, step by step
On the day, 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 tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- 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
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What affects the price in Muirhead
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
For a price in Muirhead, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- 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 else we do in Muirhead
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Muirhead
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Questions to ask before you book
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long it needs to cure
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Muirhead as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
