Bath resealing in Ponterwyd without replacing anything

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. Common call-outs are for sealant that’s split or lifting and mould you can’t clean out, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Ponterwyd: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

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 there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Common problems we fix in Ponterwyd

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black mould in the sealant

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our full price list.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage
