Bath resealing at your home in Llwyn-y-brain
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Common problems we fix in Llwyn-y-brain
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
FAQs for Llwyn-y-brain
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
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.

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you come to Llwyn-y-brain?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Llwyn-y-brain from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

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