How we handle non-slip bath coating in Duns
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We do not charge extra for travel to Duns. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Duns questions
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
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.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Duns.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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 normally the cheaper route.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Duns
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.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price covers travel
- What prep work is covered
Repair or replace in Duns?
The alternatives are 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
