How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When to call us in Llanddunwyd

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before booking

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Most clients in Llanddunwyd get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Llanddunwyd questions

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

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

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llanddunwyd use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
