Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Resealing in Banwen: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Banwen. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Banwen is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
