For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Gilmerton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Gilmerton
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Gilmerton questions
Are there extra charges for Gilmerton?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What non-slip bath coating costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace in Gilmerton?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Everything repaired in place
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Advice
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Gilmerton?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
