If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Non-slip bath coating in Nantgarw, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We are often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Nantgarw
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CF15 postcode.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
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.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Take a look at our pricing.
How we price non-slip bath coating
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. 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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
