Trusted non-slip bath coating in Mawdlam

How we price non-slip bath coating

We charge the same across the UK, including Mawdlam. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Mawdlam

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When to call us in Mawdlam

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Mawdlam

  • Acrylic baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Enamelled baths
  • Shower trays
  • Resurfaced baths

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mawdlam

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bridgend and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in Mawdlam?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Common questions in Mawdlam

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you cover the entire of Bridgend?

Everywhere in the UK, Mawdlam included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
