Non-slip bath coating in St Nicholas without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Common problems we fix in St Nicholas
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Look out for these signs:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Repair or replace in St Nicholas?
The alternatives are 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. Every job is a little different, 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.

FAQs for St Nicholas
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you cover the entire of Cardiff?
We cover the entire UK, including St Nicholas and the rest of Cardiff. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What else we do in St Nicholas
How we price non-slip bath coating
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
