Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

About our bath resealing in Bargoed

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you have damp near the bath and unsealed corners, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms alike.

Around Bargoed, a reseal is a short visit that keeps water where it belongs. We reseal baths full of water so the joint lasts.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bargoed as everywhere else we work.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together. Around Bargoed, access and parking are normally easy. If you’re down a lane or a long drive, tell us when you book.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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

Can you redo the sealant around baths and showers in a rental near Gilfach Fargoed station?

Do you work in Bargoed?

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
