Bath resealing in Lower Sketty without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and gaps in the seal.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Lower Sketty
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

What else we do in Lower Sketty
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
The process
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
