A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Balerno
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Balerno as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays

What else we do in Balerno
Repairing versus replacing in Balerno
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Balerno questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EH14 postcode.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Balerno?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long it needs to cure

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
