Non-slip bath coating for Braichmelyn homes

Non-slip bath coating in Braichmelyn without replacing anything

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. We work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

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 coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Braichmelyn

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Braichmelyn, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 generally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Braichmelyn: your questions answered

Do you cover Braichmelyn?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Braichmelyn for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

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.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LL57 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
