Non-slip bath coating in Llantwit Major, done in place
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on shower trays, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Llantwit Major: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Llantwit Major
For anyone letting property in or around Llantwit Major, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Llantwit Major?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Look out for these signs:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Llantwit Major. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Llantwit Major
- Same prices wherever you are
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- One visit for most repairs

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
