Our hiring checklist

About our non-slip bath coating in Pen-y-stryt

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We are frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

For a price in Pen-y-stryt, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Pen-y-stryt, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Pen-y-stryt

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Pen-y-stryt?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pen-y-stryt. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
