Bath resealing at your home in Gurnos
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. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

What we are called out for in Gurnos
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Stained silicone
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Leaks at the edges
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
- What aftercare is recommended
Landlord and trade work in Gurnos
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What else we do in Gurnos
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Air the room after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Questions from Gurnos
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, usually around a day.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
