Non-slip bath coating in East Helmsdale, done in place
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can usually put it right.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What else we do in East Helmsdale
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, 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

Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in East Helmsdale
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
