Bath resealing at your home in Dyffryn

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. If you’re dealing with black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

FAQs for Dyffryn

Are there extra charges for Dyffryn?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

When can you do it?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Dyffryn?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How long before I can shower?

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

Is there any odour?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Resealing in Dyffryn: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dyffryn

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dyffryn use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Dyffryn, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
