Bath resealing in Merthyr Tydfil

How we handle bath resealing in Merthyr Tydfil

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s stained silicone and black mould in the sealant, we can help, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Do you need bath resealing in Merthyr Tydfil?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
