Non-slip bath coating in Pentre

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Pentre

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Pentre questions

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pentre

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Pentre. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Pentre

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

Comparing quotes

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
