Questions from Cwmcelyn
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How we handle bath resealing in Cwmcelyn
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Common call-outs are for water getting behind the bath or tray and gaps by the taps, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Cwmcelyn and across Blaenau Gwent.

Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Cwmcelyn. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price

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.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What affects the price in Cwmcelyn
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
