Landlord and trade work in Leith
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Non-slip bath coating in Leith, done in place
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Edinburgh. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Resurfaced baths

FAQs for Leith
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Leith.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What areas do you cover?
All of Edinburgh, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What to look for in a quote

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Same prices wherever you are
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
