Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep the joints dry
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Landlord and trade work in Pen-dre
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
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.
Your questions about bath resealing in Pen-dre
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Pen-dre.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Pen-dre is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
