Non-slip bath coating in Georgetown without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Georgetown as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

FAQs for Georgetown

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Georgetown?

We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you cover the entire of Cardiff?

All of Cardiff, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Georgetown

  • Resurfaced baths
  • Acrylic baths

What affects the price in Georgetown

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Georgetown, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Most clients in Georgetown get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
