About our non-slip bath coating in Whitecross
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Lothian. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common problems we fix in Whitecross
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One visit for most repairs
See our prices page.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Whitecross
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Whitecross?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
