Bath resealing in Felinfoel

Questions from Felinfoel

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Bath resealing at your home in Felinfoel

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can normally put it right, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Felinfoel as everywhere else we work.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

When to call us in Felinfoel

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Common reasons people in Felinfoel contact us include:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Felinfoel

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

What affects the price in Felinfoel

There is no area surcharge for Felinfoel. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SA14 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For landlords and businesses

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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
