Bath resealing in Llanvihangel Pontymoel

About our bath resealing in Llanvihangel Pontymoel

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you’re dealing with mould you can’t clean out and a messy previous reseal, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Llanvihangel Pontymoel: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Will the price change on the day?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You’ll get the curing time from us, usually around a day.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Llanvihangel Pontymoel

For anyone letting property in or around Llanvihangel Pontymoel, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

Resealing in Llanvihangel Pontymoel: why it matters

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Llanvihangel Pontymoel

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A fixed quote before you book

Read our pricing.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Llanvihangel Pontymoel

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

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

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

When to call us in Llanvihangel Pontymoel

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Look out for any of the following:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What preparation is included
