Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Fixed prices from your photos

See our pricing.

Common problems we fix in Glenside

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Look out for these signs:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Glenside

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Glenside, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Common questions in Glenside

Do you work in Glenside?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Glenside and the rest of Caerphilly. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Glenside and the rest of Caerphilly. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How long does a reseal take?

Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Glenside. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
