Non-slip bath coating in Pen-y-cae

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Pen-y-cae

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 bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We don’t charge extra for travel to Pen-y-cae. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair can’t fix

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Pen-y-cae

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Pen-y-cae

Do you cover the whole of Wrexham?

All of Wrexham, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is it messy?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LL14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
