Bath resealing at your home in Llangeler

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include sealant that’s split or lifting and stained silicone, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours, 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.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

Landlord and trade work in Llangeler

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What affects the price in Llangeler

We don’t charge extra for travel to Llangeler. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Signs you need bath resealing in Llangeler

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before booking

Llangeler questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Are you accredited?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Llangeler.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

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.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No extra charge for your area

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
