Bath resealing for Bedwas homes

Bath resealing in Bedwas, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. If you’re dealing with unsealed corners and a messy previous reseal, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Bedwas

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

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.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Bedwas, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Why it’s worth resealing in Bedwas

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Bedwas questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

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

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What happens after I send pictures?

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