About our non-slip bath coating in Cefn Hengoed

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. 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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Cefn Hengoed

  • Wet room floors (ask us)

  • Shower trays
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Acrylic baths

What affects the price in Cefn Hengoed

We don’t charge extra for travel to Cefn Hengoed. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

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

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Cefn Hengoed

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cefn Hengoed as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Cefn Hengoed

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Our hiring checklist

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 adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
