When to call us in Cwrtnewydd

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

Most clients in Cwrtnewydd get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

FAQs for Cwrtnewydd

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Do you cover Cwrtnewydd?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Cwrtnewydd and the rest of Ceredigion. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
