What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Addiewell

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. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Addiewell and across West Lothian. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Shower trays
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Acrylic baths

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Addiewell

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Addiewell?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you work in Addiewell?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Addiewell from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

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.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you cover the entire of West Lothian?

The whole UK, including all of West Lothian. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
