Bath resealing in Brynithel

About our bath resealing in Brynithel

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 baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and gaps in the seal.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no charge for travel to Brynithel. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Brynithel: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Brynithel is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

How long will it take?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NP13 postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Should I try a DIY kit 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Common problems we fix in Brynithel

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Stained silicone

  • How the room is protected while they work
