How we handle non-slip bath coating in Newbattle
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We charge the same across the UK, including Newbattle. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise 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.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EH22 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Advice
Common questions in Newbattle
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- 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.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
