- Worn-out textured areas

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Pen-yr-heol
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common questions in Pen-yr-heol
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you work in Pen-yr-heol?
We do. We send a technician to Pen-yr-heol for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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 typically the cheaper route.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pen-yr-heol
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What affects the price in Pen-yr-heol
We do not charge extra for travel to Pen-yr-heol. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Pen-yr-heol. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Repairing versus replacing in Pen-yr-heol
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
