Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs

Non-slip bath coating in Pen-y-bryn, done in place

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

What we cannot put right

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Pen-y-bryn questions

Do you work in Pen-y-bryn?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Pen-y-bryn and the rest of Bridgend. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Pen-y-bryn included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pen-y-bryn as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CF33 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Choosing a repair company

What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Pen-y-bryn. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job.
