Non-slip bath coating at your home in Tre-Gibbon
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Before we arrive

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
There are no surprise 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.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CF44 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Tre-Gibbon
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
