Non-slip bath coating in Little Mill without replacing anything
It’s popular with 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. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can usually put it right, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Little Mill and across Torfaen. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Little Mill
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Everywhere in the UK, Little Mill included. Travel is included in the price.
Are you a vetted contractor?

When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Little Mill
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who will actually do the work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
