Do you need bath resealing in Pen-yr-heol?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What we cannot put right

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

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bridgend and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Pen-yr-heol: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs
