Non-slip bath coating at your home in Foel
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on shower trays, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Foel
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Foel
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What we’re called out for in Foel
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- When it can be used again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
What else we do in Foel
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Questions from Foel
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Foel?
We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
