Bath resealing in Pen-y-Glodfa without replacing anything
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. If you’re dealing with unsealed corners and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can generally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What affects the price in Pen-y-Glodfa
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pen-y-Glodfa as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Why it’s worth resealing in Pen-y-Glodfa
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
