Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Barry, Vale of Glamorgan
Our technicians come to Barry for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Gaps by the taps
- Stained silicone
- Gaps in the seal
How we handle bath resealing in Barry
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and leaks at the edges, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barry
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit

- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A flexing bath
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
Common problems we fix in Barry
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps by the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Sealant that is split or lifting
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Your questions about bath resealing in Barry
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Barry and the rest of the Vale of Glamorgan. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
How much does bath resealing cost in Barry?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you cover Barry?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Barry from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Barry. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
