Bath resealing for Pentrepoeth homes

How we handle bath resealing in Pentrepoeth

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re often asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and mould you can’t clean out, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Newport.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Your questions about bath resealing in Pentrepoeth

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Landlord and trade work in Pentrepoeth

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pentrepoeth as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

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

When to call us in Pentrepoeth

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
