Non-slip bath coating in Garthmyl

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Garthmyl

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There’s no charge for travel to Garthmyl. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Garthmyl. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Garthmyl, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Common problems we fix in Garthmyl

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Resurfaced baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Acrylic baths
  • Shower trays
  • Enamelled baths

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

Garthmyl questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
