The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Pontyberem
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
- Sealant that is split or lifting

Pontyberem: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Pontyberem included. There is no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Resealing in Pontyberem: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What bath resealing costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Pontyberem. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pontyberem
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
For anyone letting property in or around Pontyberem, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Let steam out after showers
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
