Landlords, agents and businesses in Gorgie
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
About our non-slip bath coating in Gorgie
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in Gorgie?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What affects the price in Gorgie
There is no charge for travel to Gorgie. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gorgie. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Gorgie get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What we are called out for in Gorgie
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
FAQs for Gorgie
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EH11 postcode.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
