Bath resealing for Glyntaff homes

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

Bath resealing in Glyntaff, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Glyntaff

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

What we’re called out for in Glyntaff

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to care for the finish
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How we price bath resealing

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For a price in Glyntaff, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Glyntaff questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
