About our non-slip bath coating in Gelligaer
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most customers in Gelligaer get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repairing versus replacing in Gelligaer
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Everything repaired in place
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One visit for most repairs

How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Gelligaer
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
