Bath resealing in Nant-y-bwch without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal.

Around Nant-y-bwch, homes are mostly houses and bungalows, and resealing keeps water out of walls and floors.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Common problems we fix in Nant-y-bwch

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

The things customers generally mention when they call include:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Gaps by the taps

Your questions about bath resealing in Nant-y-bwch

Can you redo the sealant around baths and showers at a school or business in Nant-y-bwch?

Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. Tell us about access and timings for the building.

I let a flat near Rhymney station. Can you help between tenants?

Yes. Send photos and the address, and we will quote, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.

Do you cover Nant-y-bwch?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Nant-y-bwch for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you cover the whole of Blaenau Gwent?

All of Blaenau Gwent, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hidden water damage

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured. For a home in Nant-y-bwch, we normally park close by and start immediately.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. 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 quote.
