Non-slip bath coating in Strathore, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Fife. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Strathore, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When to call us in Strathore

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Look out for these signs:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Questions from Strathore

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover Strathore?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Strathore and the rest of Fife. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.

Do you cover the whole of Fife?

We cover the whole UK, including Strathore and the rest of Fife. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.
