What non-slip bath coating costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Heolgerrig. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CF48 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Heolgerrig
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Heolgerrig and across Merthyr Tydfil. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Heolgerrig
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
If you manage property in Heolgerrig, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not 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 will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Heolgerrig
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
