Pen-y-banc questions

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What do you need from me?

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Pen-y-banc
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Pen-y-banc
The alternatives are 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. 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.

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- 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
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
