Bath resealing in Efail Isaf, done in place
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. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and a messy previous reseal, in kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
FAQs for Efail Isaf
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you cover the whole of Rhondda Cynon Taff?
Across the UK, and that includes Efail Isaf. Prices do not change with location.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Rhondda Cynon Taff.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
