Non-Slip Bath Coating in Pen-Rhiw-fawr
We travel to Pen-Rhiw-fawr for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Pen-Rhiw-fawr
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Pen-Rhiw-fawr: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
