Bath resealing in Garnant

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

Bath resealing in Garnant, done in place

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. If you are dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Garnant

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Landlord and trade work in Garnant

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Hidden water damage

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price bath resealing

There’s no area surcharge for Garnant. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in Garnant, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
