How we handle non-slip bath coating in Penybanc
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Penybanc?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Penybanc
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you come to Penybanc?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Penybanc. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
