Bath resealing in Pen-marc

About our bath resealing in Pen-marc

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and sealant that’s split or lifting, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Pen-marc: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Pen-marc. Prices don’t change with location.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you work in Pen-marc?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Pen-marc from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Common problems we fix in Pen-marc

In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Unsealed corners
  • Gaps in the seal

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  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. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pen-marc use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CF62 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Use the extractor fan

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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