Non-slip bath coating in Holy Corner, done in place
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. 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 help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
Most clients in Holy Corner 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.
What we can’t put right

- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

Landlord and trade work in Holy Corner
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holy Corner use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Edinburgh and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Questions from Holy Corner
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Holy Corner?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Holy Corner and the rest of Edinburgh. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
