Bath resealing for Brynamman homes

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How we handle bath resealing in Brynamman

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Brynamman and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms

Sinks and worktops

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

What affects the price in Brynamman

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Brynamman

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
