Non-slip bath coating in Llantwit Fardre, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Llantwit Fardre. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Llantwit Fardre
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace in Llantwit Fardre?
