About our non-slip bath coating in Port Appin
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Port Appin
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PA38 postcode.

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

We do. We send a technician to Port Appin for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Most jobs done in one visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Port Appin, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t 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
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
