Bath resealing for Grovesend homes

What we’re called out for in Grovesend

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • Unsealed corners
  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black spots in the silicone

Before booking anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Bath resealing at your home in Grovesend

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Swansea.

Landlord and trade work in Grovesend

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Grovesend: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of Swansea?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Grovesend. Prices don’t change with location.

Do you work in Grovesend?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Grovesend. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Grovesend?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SA4 postcode.

What affects the price in Grovesend

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
