Bath resealing at your home in Llanwrtyd Wells

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are missing sealant behind the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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 typically cheaper.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours. The room is left tidy.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

Landlord and trade work in Llanwrtyd Wells

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Llanwrtyd Wells: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Do you cover Llanwrtyd Wells?

We do. We send a technician to Llanwrtyd Wells for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Common problems we fix in Llanwrtyd Wells

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal

How we price bath resealing

There’s no area surcharge for Llanwrtyd Wells. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
