Non-slip bath & shower coating in Gurnos, Merthyr Tydfil
We travel to Gurnos for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Non-slip bath coating in Gurnos, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
When to call us in Gurnos
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Look out for any of the following:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Repair or replace in Gurnos?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before you book
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Questions from Gurnos
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you work in Gurnos?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Gurnos and the rest of Merthyr Tydfil. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What else we do in Gurnos
Landlord and trade work in Gurnos
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
