Do you need bath resealing in Gaer?
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Common reasons people in Gaer contact us include:
- Damp near the bath

- Black mould in the sealant
- An untidy old seal

Why it’s worth resealing in Gaer
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Questions from Gaer
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Also in Gaer
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
