Non-slip bath coating in Pen-y-bont, done in place
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. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Pen-y-bont?
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 treats your existing bath or tray. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Pen-y-bont: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What areas do you cover?
All of Blaenau Gwent, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you cover Pen-y-bont?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Pen-y-bont. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What we are called out for in Pen-y-bont
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- 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
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- Aftercare advice
- What protection goes down before work starts
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
What happens on the day
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 morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

How we price non-slip bath coating
There’s no area surcharge for Pen-y-bont. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pen-y-bont as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
