Non-slip bath coating for Glan-llyn homes

Non-slip bath coating in Glan-llyn without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair shower trays, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Glan-llyn

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Glan-llyn. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Common questions in Glan-llyn

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Cardiff, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Glan-llyn?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your CF15 postcode.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Glan-llyn?

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 any of these:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlord and trade work in Glan-llyn

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace in Glan-llyn?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
