Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Garn-yr-erw
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
About our non-slip bath coating in Garn-yr-erw
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What a repair can’t fix

How we price non-slip bath coating
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
