Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Davidson's Mains
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We’re often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Davidson's Mains?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
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
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Davidson's Mains
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Davidson's Mains as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Davidson's Mains questions
Can you repair several things at once?

Do you cover the entire of Edinburgh?
All of Edinburgh, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Davidson's Mains.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
