Non-slip bath coating in East Saltoun without replacing anything
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. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Saltoun as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

East Saltoun questions
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do you cover East Saltoun?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to East Saltoun from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How we price non-slip bath coating
You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for East Saltoun. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
