About our bath resealing in Pen-y-foel
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and an untidy old seal, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Questions from Pen-y-foel
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you cover the whole of Powys?
All of Powys, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Pen-y-foel
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
Common problems we fix in Pen-y-foel
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
- Leaks at the edges
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- Aftercare advice
- What prep work is covered
- How the room is protected while they work
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
