Non-slip bath coating at your home in Stromness
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We’re frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Stromness and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

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 non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in Stromness get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work 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.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
FAQs for Stromness
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of the Orkney Islands. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
