Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. If you are dealing with black mould in the sealant and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can normally put it right, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Common problems we fix in Cynonville

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in Cynonville

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cynonville

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
