The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Common questions in Penygloddfa

Do you cover the whole of Powys?

Everywhere in the UK, Penygloddfa included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Honest limits

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

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep the joints dry

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
