About our bath resealing in Penmachno
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. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are unsealed corners and silicone coming away from the tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Penmachno as everywhere else we work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you are 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.

When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hidden water damage
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Questions from Penmachno
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Penmachno?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
What we are called out for in Penmachno

- Sealant that’s split or lifting
What to look for in a quote

How we price bath resealing
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Store bottles on a shelf
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
