Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

How we handle bath resealing in Llan-giwg

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We’re often asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and gaps in the seal, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Llan-giwg and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common questions in Llan-giwg

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Llan-giwg included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Llan-giwg

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

What affects the price in Llan-giwg

We charge the same across the UK, including Llan-giwg. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Why it’s worth resealing in Llan-giwg

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our prices page.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes around two hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
