Why it’s worth resealing in Pen-yr-heol

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price bath resealing

There’s no area surcharge for Pen-yr-heol. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pen-yr-heol. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Let steam out after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Your questions about bath resealing in Pen-yr-heol

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Are there extra charges for Pen-yr-heol?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Pen-yr-heol?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

When to call us in Pen-yr-heol

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Look out for these signs:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Stained silicone

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
