Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Braehoulland as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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 treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Questions from Braehoulland
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll 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.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What we do, step by step
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 usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Braehoulland. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures

- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Braehoulland?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
