About our non-slip bath coating in Pen-twyn

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We are often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Monmouthshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Pen-twyn

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

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Pen-twyn

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Pen-twyn: your questions answered

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pen-twyn

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Monmouthshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pen-twyn as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
