Bath resealing near Pencoedtre

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pencoedtre

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in the Vale of Glamorgan and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Bath resealing at your home in Pencoedtre

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with gaps by the taps and stained silicone, we can usually put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Common questions in Pencoedtre

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

Most clients in Pencoedtre get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Related advice

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
