Trusted non-slip bath coating in Talgarth

About our non-slip bath coating in Talgarth

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, in enamelled baths, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Shower trays
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Resurfaced baths

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairing versus replacing in Talgarth

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Talgarth clients choose us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your photos

What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in Talgarth

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Choosing a repair company

Talgarth: your questions answered

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Talgarth. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
