Non-slip bath & shower coating in Bettws, Newport
Non-slip bath coating across Bettws and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Bettws
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, across enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Bettws: your questions answered
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Newport, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What non-slip bath coating costs
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Bettws. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most clients in Bettws get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlord and trade work in Bettws
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bettws as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Bettws?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
