Need non-slip bath coating in Penmaen?

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

About our non-slip bath coating in Penmaen

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can typically put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Penmaen. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Penmaen, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Penmaen?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
