Landlord and trade work in Portobello
If you manage property in Portobello, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Portobello as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Non-slip bath coating in Portobello without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Portobello questions
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Are there extra charges for Portobello?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
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.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Portobello?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
What non-slip bath coating costs
There is no charge for travel to Portobello. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Portobello
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?

See our prices page.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
