Questions from Galon Uchaf
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you cover the whole of Merthyr Tydfil?
We cover the entire UK, including Galon Uchaf and the rest of Merthyr Tydfil. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Bath resealing in Galon Uchaf, done in place
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms, and people most often call us about old sealant that looks dirty and mould you can’t clean out.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Let steam out after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Galon Uchaf
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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