Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Gellinudd, Neath Port Talbot
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for homes and businesses in Gellinudd and across Neath Port Talbot. Send photos for a free, fixed quote.
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Bath resealing in Gellinudd without replacing anything
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are missing sealant behind the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Gellinudd and across Neath Port Talbot.

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Gellinudd
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Gellinudd, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
FAQs for Gellinudd
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
