Why it’s worth resealing in Llanbedr
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Llanbedr, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Questions from Llanbedr
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
When to call us in Llanbedr
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Unsealed corners
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the room is protected while they work

What else we do in Llanbedr
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Open a window after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
