Bath resealing in Cymmer without the cost of replacing. Get a fixed price from your pictures, then we come to you.
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Bath resealing in Cymmer, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and old sealant that looks dirty.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Your questions about bath resealing in Cymmer
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What else we do in Cymmer
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Landlord and trade work in Cymmer
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take around two hours.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
