Trusted non-slip bath coating in North Kessock

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Questions from North Kessock

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in North Kessock, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in North Kessock?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
