Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Stained silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Black mould in the sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps

About our bath resealing in Llanfarian
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with unsealed corners and an untidy old seal, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- 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
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llanfarian use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we cannot put right

- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A flexing bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, 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. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
