Bath resealing in Garn-yr-erw, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include damp near the bath and silicone smeared on tiles, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Resealing in Garn-yr-erw: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Common questions in Garn-yr-erw
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
How long will it take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you cover the whole of Torfaen?
All of Torfaen, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
