Trusted non-slip bath coating in Wenvoe

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Wenvoe

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Wenvoe

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Wenvoe, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Wenvoe questions

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

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

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wenvoe

If you manage property in Wenvoe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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 adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Wenvoe customers choose us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Common problems we fix in Wenvoe

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel
