Non-Slip Bath Coating in Edinburgh

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Edinburgh

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Cost

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Getting a price

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

Around Edinburgh

We visit homes around Bruntsfield Links, St Cuthbert's Church and Edinburgh, among other places. Nearby too are Edinburgh School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture (within half a mile east), Tollcross Primary School (within half a mile south), Bennets Bar (under half a mile south-east) and Boroughmuir High School (within half a mile south). The closest station to Edinburgh is Haymarket station, roughly 0.5 miles west. Further afield, we also cover the area around Museum of Fire (within half a mile north-east) and Princess Alexandra Eye Pavilion (less than half a mile east). The countryside around Edinburgh includes Salisbury Crags and Dunsapie Loch.

  • Other local spots include Signet Library (0.7 miles north-east)

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Edinburgh use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Should you replace it?

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.

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
  • How to care for the finish

What affects the price in Edinburgh

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Edinburgh

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are there extra charges for Edinburgh?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
