Bath resealing in Clyro without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Clyro and across Herefordshire.

What bath resealing costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Clyro, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Resealing in Clyro: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Questions from Clyro

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

How long does a reseal take?

Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Let steam out after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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