Non-slip bath coating in Ynysowen, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ynysowen and across Merthyr Tydfil. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What else we do in Ynysowen
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
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Ynysowen
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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

For anyone letting property in or around Ynysowen, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
How we price non-slip bath coating
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ynysowen. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Ynysowen, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
