Inveresk questions
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you cover Inveresk?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Inveresk from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Inveresk
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What else we do in Inveresk
What affects the price in Inveresk
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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 remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inveresk as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your EH21 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot 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’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Inveresk?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the room is protected while they work
- If travel is included in the price

Repair or replace in Inveresk?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Inveresk. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
