Non-slip bath coating for Pont-iets homes

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Pont-iets

It suits 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 regularly repair enamelled baths, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and people most frequently call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

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

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Common questions in Pont-iets

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Carmarthenshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

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

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What non-slip bath coating costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SA15 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Pont-iets

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 non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
