Trusted bath resealing in Llandybie

How we handle bath resealing in Llandybie

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges.

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

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • 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 through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Read our prices page.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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.

When to call us in Llandybie

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • An untidy old seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage

Common questions in Llandybie

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SA18 postcode.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
