Craig-y-Rhacca questions
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Do you work in Craig-y-Rhacca?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Craig-y-Rhacca from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Are there extra charges for Craig-y-Rhacca?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
How we price non-slip bath coating
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Craig-y-Rhacca, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
