Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Bath resealing in Cwm-twrch Isaf, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal, in kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Your questions about bath resealing in Cwm-twrch Isaf

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

Do you cover the entire of Powys?

Across the UK, and that includes Cwm-twrch Isaf. Our prices are the same everywhere.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Typically because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take around two hours.

  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

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Cwm-twrch Isaf

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Cwm-twrch Isaf, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Signs you need bath resealing in Cwm-twrch Isaf

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
