Non-slip bath coating in Buckstone, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Buckstone and across Edinburgh. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Buckstone questions
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Buckstone?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
When can you do it?

Prices and what affects them
We don’t charge extra for travel to Buckstone. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Buckstone
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Buckstone use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
