Trusted non-slip bath coating in Trefriw

Non-slip bath coating in Trefriw without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, 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. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can generally put it right, on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Trefriw

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trefriw as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
