Non-slip bath coating in Barnardtown without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, in acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Barnardtown as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Barnardtown

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to compare quotes

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Barnardtown: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Barnardtown?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Barnardtown and the rest of Newport. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do you come to Barnardtown?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Barnardtown from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
