Non-slip bath coating near Crindau

Non-slip bath coating in Crindau without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas

How to compare quotes

How we price non-slip bath coating

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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 over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
