Non-slip bath coating in Craichie without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Craichie
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

- 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
What else we do in Craichie
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
