Cadoxton questions

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How much does bath resealing cost in Cadoxton?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Are there extra charges for Cadoxton?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you cover the entire of the Vale of Glamorgan?

Across the UK, so Cadoxton is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Bath resealing in Cadoxton, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and discoloured, yellow sealant.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Cadoxton

For anyone letting property in or around Cadoxton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

What we work on

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Prices and what affects them

There is no area surcharge for Cadoxton. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
