Bath resealing in Cwmrhydyceirw, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for black spots in the silicone and damp near the bath, in wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What else we do in Cwmrhydyceirw
When we would advise against a repair

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Cwmrhydyceirw
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Cwmrhydyceirw questions
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Common problems we fix in Cwmrhydyceirw
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Stained silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Mould you cannot clean out
Comparing quotes

- How long it needs to cure
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Keep bottles off the joints
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Why it’s worth resealing in Cwmrhydyceirw
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
