Non-slip bath & shower coating in Burravoe, Shetland Islands
Our repair technicians come to Burravoe for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Burravoe
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Shetland Islands. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What else we do in Burravoe
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we are called out for in Burravoe
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Aftercare advice
- How your room will be protected
- When it can be used again

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Burravoe
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What affects the price in Burravoe
We charge the same across the UK, including Burravoe. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Burravoe and the surrounding area
Burravoe is in the Shetland Islands. Customers in Burravoe get the same service as everywhere else we cover: a fixed quote from your pictures, and a technician at your door on the day. We cover 63 places in the Shetland Islands, from the larger towns to small villages.
Here we cover the ZE2 postcode area. Whether you live on Brough Road and Meadow Bank Road or a nearby road, a technician can come to you. If you are just outside Burravoe, we cover Aywick (4 miles north), Mossbank (5 miles south-west), Firth (6 miles south-west), Mid Yell (7 miles north) and Vidlin (9 miles south). Some remote addresses need extra planning, so call us to arrange it.
Near you in Burravoe
Typical jobs here are in homes near St Colman's Episcopal Church and the streets around them. Further afield, we also cover the area around The Old Haa (within half a mile south). For a walk, there’s Loch of Vatswick.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Burravoe customers choose us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Everything repaired in place
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Same prices wherever you are

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
