Non-slip bath coating in Heol-las

Non-slip bath coating in Heol-las without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Heol-las

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip 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. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business

What non-slip bath coating costs

There’s no charge for travel to Heol-las. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Enamelled baths

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
