What we can’t put right

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A flexing bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

  • Shower trays & enclosures

Bath resealing in Bardsey without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and black mould in the sealant, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bardsey

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Can I fix it myself?

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Bardsey: your questions answered

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Bardsey?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Common problems we fix in Bardsey

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

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

How to compare quotes

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
