Your questions about bath resealing in Foelgastell
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
How long does a reseal take?
Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Why it’s worth resealing in Foelgastell
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Foelgastell. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What else we do in Foelgastell
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
