Non-slip bath coating for Trebannws homes

Non-slip bath coating in Trebannws without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in Trebannws

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Are there extra charges for Trebannws?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Trebannws

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trebannws use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Trebannws, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

What affects the price in Trebannws

We do not charge extra for travel to Trebannws. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When to call us in Trebannws

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
