Rhyd-y-foel: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you cover Rhyd-y-foel?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Rhyd-y-foel from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Rhyd-y-foel included. Travel is included in the price.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Rhyd-y-foel
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Rhyd-y-foel
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rhyd-y-foel as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What non-slip bath coating costs
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
