About our bath resealing in Aberclydach

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for silicone smeared on tiles and water getting behind the bath or tray, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Aberclydach

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Aberclydach

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How we price bath resealing

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
