Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Bath resealing in Cefn Rhigos without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you are dealing with silicone coming away from the tiles and gaps by the taps, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

Questions from Cefn Rhigos

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are there extra charges for Cefn Rhigos?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Cefn Rhigos?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CF44 postcode.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cefn Rhigos. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Cefn Rhigos clients choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Common problems we fix in Cefn Rhigos

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps in the seal

Comparing quotes

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it 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.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Cefn Rhigos

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cefn Rhigos use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

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