About our bath resealing in Llanfrechfa

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NP44 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Llanfrechfa questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Are you accredited?

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

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
