Bath resealing across Bridgend: what to expect

A good reseal is all about preparation: 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 water getting behind the bath or tray and an untidy old seal, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlord and trade work in Bridgend

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bridgend use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What affects the price in Bridgend

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in Bridgend

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Stained silicone

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath

Bridgend: your questions answered

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work in Bridgend?

We do. Technicians travel to Bridgend from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are there extra charges for Bridgend?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How long does a reseal take?

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