Non-slip bath & shower coating in Pentrefelin, Conwy

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Pentrefelin
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 often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Pentrefelin and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
Honest limits
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
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price

Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Pentrefelin?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
