Non-slip bath coating in Trostre

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Non-slip bath coating in Trostre without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, 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 a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Trostre

Do you cover the entire of Carmarthenshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Trostre included. Travel is included in the price.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Trostre?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.

  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. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

When to call us in Trostre

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Trostre

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

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.
