Bath resealing for Pontlottyn homes

Bath resealing at your home in Pontlottyn

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Pontlottyn questions

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Pontlottyn?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Caerphilly and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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.

What affects the price in Pontlottyn

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
