Bath resealing for Capel-y-graig homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Bath resealing at your home in Capel-y-graig

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. Most jobs take a couple of hours. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are black spots in the silicone and leaks at the edges.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Capel-y-graig questions

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do the materials smell?

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

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What we’re called out for in Capel-y-graig

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Leaks at the edges

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What aftercare is recommended

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Capel-y-graig. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Materials we work on in Capel-y-graig

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, 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.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
