About our non-slip bath coating in Llwchwr
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, across shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llwchwr use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Llwchwr: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Llwchwr
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- Aftercare advice
- What preparation is included
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Most customers in Llwchwr get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not 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
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled 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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
