How we handle non-slip bath coating in Scalasaig
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Argyll and Bute. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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 will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PA61 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Scalasaig
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Get a quote
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Scalasaig as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
FAQs for Scalasaig
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you cover Scalasaig?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Scalasaig from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
