Our hiring checklist

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath. We leave the room clean.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Your questions about bath resealing in Porthcawl

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

How long will it take?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Porthcawl. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What affects the price in Porthcawl

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.
