Non-Slip Bath Coating for Pant-mawr homes
We travel to Pant-mawr for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Pant-mawr
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cardiff. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Pant-mawr
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Pant-mawr questions
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Pant-mawr and the rest of Cardiff. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, 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 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.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cardiff and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repairing versus replacing in Pant-mawr
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
