Non-slip bath coating near Belhaven

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Belhaven

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help, on shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Belhaven

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Belhaven as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we are called out for in Belhaven

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Belhaven. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

FAQs for Belhaven

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

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

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you work in Belhaven?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Belhaven and the rest of East Lothian. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t 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 before booking.

What we work on

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

What non-slip bath coating costs

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
