Non-Slip Bath Coating for Gilwern homes
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in Gilwern and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Landlords, agents and businesses in Gilwern
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
About our non-slip bath coating in Gilwern
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, across shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Gilwern
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
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
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in Gilwern, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Rooms protected and left tidy

FAQs for Gilwern
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
When to call us in Gilwern
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.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
