Non-slip bath & shower coating in Garth, Gwynedd
Local non-slip bath coating for Garth: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.

Non-slip bath coating in Garth without replacing anything
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 work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gwynedd. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common questions in Garth
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
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.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Landlord and trade work in Garth
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
If you manage property in Garth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price

What we’re called out for in Garth
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace in Garth?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Garth. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
