Bath resealing for Bethesda homes

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Bath resealing in Bethesda without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and gaps by the taps.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Your questions about bath resealing in Bethesda

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you cover the entire of Gwynedd?

Across the UK, and that includes Bethesda. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bethesda use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Bethesda

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Stained silicone
  • Damp near the bath

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry

Related advice

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
