Bath resealing in Pontygwaith

Bath resealing in Pontygwaith, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Why reseal now?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Pontygwaith

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pontygwaith as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Common questions in Pontygwaith

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

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

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CF43 postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
