DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Aber Valley: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Do you need bath resealing in Aber Valley?

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Look out for these signs:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • An untidy old seal

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • Aftercare advice
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
