- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Non-slip bath coating in Wanlockhead without replacing anything
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can generally put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Wanlockhead and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Wanlockhead
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your ML12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Wanlockhead
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
