Trusted non-slip bath coating in Treowen

About our non-slip bath coating in Treowen

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

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Treowen. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

FAQs for Treowen

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Treowen?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SY16 postcode.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Treowen

If you manage property in Treowen, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Treowen

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

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)

  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
