Bath Resealing in Penystrywad
We travel to Penystrywad for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Bath resealing at your home in Penystrywad
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include stained silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, in wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Air the room after use
- Use the extractor fan
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Penystrywad. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price.

Common problems we fix in Penystrywad
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- A messy previous reseal
- Mould you can’t clean out
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
