How we handle non-slip bath coating in Comely Bank
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We’re often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Comely Bank
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Comely Bank?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Repairing versus replacing in Comely Bank
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
