Non-Slip Bath Coating for Kelso homes
Our repair technicians come to Kelso for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
Non-slip bath coating in Kelso, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We’re frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common questions in Kelso
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across the Scottish Borders.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you cover Kelso?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Kelso. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Landlord and trade work in Kelso
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Kelso
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- The material
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Other services in Kelso
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Why repair rather than replace?
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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No extra charge for your area
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Kelso?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People typically call us after spotting something like this:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
