Repairing versus replacing in Stronmilchan
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stronmilchan. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

About our non-slip bath coating in Stronmilchan
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
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 price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Stronmilchan, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
When to call us in Stronmilchan

Questions from Stronmilchan
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
