Non-slip bath coating in Ponthir, done in place
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can typically put it right.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ponthir and across Newport. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ponthir use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- One visit for most repairs
- No extra charge for your area
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Questions from Ponthir
Do you come to Ponthir?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Ponthir. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
