About our non-slip bath coating in Elphinstone
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlord and trade work in Elphinstone
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Lothian and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elphinstone as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairing versus replacing in Elphinstone
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

FAQs for Elphinstone
Do you come to Elphinstone?
We do. We send a technician to Elphinstone for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Elphinstone. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
