Bath resealing for Llanvair-Discoed homes

Bath resealing in Llanvair-Discoed without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you are dealing with gaps by the taps and a messy previous reseal, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Llanvair-Discoed, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Llanvair-Discoed

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

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black mould in the sealant

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again
  • What preparation is included
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Questions from Llanvair-Discoed

Do you work in Llanvair-Discoed?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Llanvair-Discoed from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you cover the whole of Monmouthshire?

The entire UK, including all of Monmouthshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
