Non-slip bath coating at your home in Wattstown
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. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
FAQs for Wattstown

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
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.

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

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

What we are called out for in Wattstown
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wattstown use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Rhondda Cynon Taff and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, 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
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Wattstown
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
