Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Why it’s worth resealing in Port Talbot
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Port Talbot
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Port Talbot is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Do you cover Port Talbot?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Port Talbot. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
