Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Resealing in Gilfach: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
