Bath resealing near Mount Pleasant

Bath resealing at your home in Mount Pleasant

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our technicians work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about stained silicone and silicone smeared on tiles.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

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

Landlord and trade work in Mount Pleasant

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Swansea and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Mount Pleasant

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
