Bath resealing in Cwm-y-glo

How we handle bath resealing in Cwm-y-glo

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and a messy previous reseal, we can help, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Do you need bath resealing in Cwm-y-glo?

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Look out for these signs:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work

What does bath resealing cost?

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

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. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
