Non-slip bath coating in Waunfawr without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

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

FAQs for Waunfawr

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

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

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

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.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Waunfawr.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. 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.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waunfawr as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

When to call us in Waunfawr

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

What non-slip bath coating costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Waunfawr. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
