About our bath resealing in Pen-y-bryn
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are black spots in the silicone and discoloured, yellow sealant.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Why it’s worth resealing in Pen-y-bryn
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Pen-y-bryn: your questions answered
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Pen-y-bryn and the rest of Bridgend. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
