Non-Slip Bath Coating in Fochriw
Our repair technicians come to Fochriw for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.

- Worn-out textured areas
Non-slip bath coating in Fochriw without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Advice
What non-slip bath coating costs
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Fochriw: your questions answered
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you work in Fochriw?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Fochriw from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can I fix it myself?
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repair or replace in Fochriw?
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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
