Non-slip bath & shower coating in Bilston, Midlothian
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in Bilston and the surrounding area, typically in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Non-slip bath coating in Bilston, done in place
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right
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’ll tell you honestly.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
When to call us in Bilston
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Customers typically contact us about:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- What aftercare is recommended
- What prep work is covered
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bilston
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common questions in Bilston
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Midlothian. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bilston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- No extra charge for your area
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
