Trusted non-slip bath coating in Pen-y-Dre

Non-slip bath coating in Pen-y-Dre without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Pen-y-Dre

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Pen-y-Dre?

We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Pen-y-Dre.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Pen-y-Dre?

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.

Customers typically contact us about:

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

How to compare quotes

What non-slip bath coating costs

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

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

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
