Bath resealing in Port Tennant, done in place

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about gaps by the taps and black mould in the sealant.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match

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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

FAQs for Port Tennant

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Port Tennant?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SA1 postcode.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Swansea.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
