Non-slip bath coating in Seton, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can usually put it right, on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Seton
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Repairing versus replacing in Seton
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in East Lothian and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What affects the price in Seton
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair 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
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Seton

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
