Non-slip bath & shower coating in Wern, Carmarthenshire
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays at your home in Wern, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Wern
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are frequently asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, in wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Carmarthenshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

When to call us in Wern
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wern as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Questions from Wern
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you cover Wern?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wern. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What affects the price in Wern
We charge the same across the UK, including Wern. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Wern. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
