Non-slip bath coating at your home in Dowlais
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Dowlais
The alternatives are 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. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Dowlais customers choose us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We leave the room as we found it
- Work done at your home or business

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
