Drefach: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Bath resealing in Drefach without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal, we can help, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Drefach and across Carmarthenshire.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Repairs by material

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Drefach

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Drefach as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Drefach, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Drefach

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything

Common problems we fix in Drefach

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Leaks at the edges

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

How we price bath resealing

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
