Non-Slip Bath Coating in Pontcanna

- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Pontcanna
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. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Pontcanna and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
What non-slip bath coating costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise 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.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Repair or replace in Pontcanna?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

- A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common problems we fix in Pontcanna
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Common questions in Pontcanna
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your CF5 postcode.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
