Bath resealing near Gors-goch

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Bath resealing in Gors-goch 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 regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and black spots in the silicone.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gors-goch

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

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Gors-goch, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Gors-goch: your questions answered

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time, usually around a day.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can landlords book you?

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

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
