Non-slip bath coating for Blaenrhondda homes

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Blaenrhondda

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What affects the price in Blaenrhondda

We do not charge extra for travel to Blaenrhondda. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Questions from Blaenrhondda

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Blaenrhondda, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repairing versus replacing in Blaenrhondda

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
