Non-slip bath coating in St Fergus, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in St Fergus and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, 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
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

- Enamelled baths

- Resurfaced baths
Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for St Fergus. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
