About our bath resealing in Radyr
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with damp near the bath and an untidy old seal, we can help, on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Landlord and trade work in Radyr
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Common questions in Radyr
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you cover the whole of Cardiff?
Everywhere in the UK, Radyr included. There is no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
What we are called out for in Radyr
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- An untidy old seal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Why it’s worth resealing in Radyr
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

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