Non-slip bath coating at your home in Tal-y-bont
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. 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 apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Are there extra charges for Tal-y-bont?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?

What affects the price in Tal-y-bont
There’s no charge for travel to Tal-y-bont. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tal-y-bont as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
