Landlord and trade work in Hakin
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Bath resealing in Hakin without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and silicone smeared on tiles.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hakin and across Pembrokeshire.

Hakin: your questions answered
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage

What else we do in Hakin
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we price bath resealing
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Common problems we fix in Hakin
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- A messy previous reseal
- Unsealed corners
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Aftercare advice
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
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.
