Bath resealing for Cogan homes

Bath resealing at your home in Cogan

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths, and people most frequently call us about black spots in the silicone and gaps in the seal.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Common questions in Cogan

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Cardiff.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in Cogan and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cardiff and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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

Common problems we fix in Cogan

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included
