Non-slip bath coating near Aberllefenni

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Non-slip bath coating in Aberllefenni, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common problems we fix in Aberllefenni

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.

The things customers generally mention when they call include:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

How to compare quotes

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

Repairing versus replacing in Aberllefenni

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.

FAQs for Aberllefenni

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
