Non-slip bath coating at your home in Porth-y-waen
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. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Porth-y-waen and across Shropshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Why repair rather than replace?
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 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.

Porth-y-waen questions
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Porth-y-waen?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)

Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
