How we handle bath resealing in Rhyd-y-fro
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are mould you can’t clean out and damp near the bath.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Air the room after use
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Keep the joints dry
- Use the extractor fan
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

FAQs for Rhyd-y-fro
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover Rhyd-y-fro?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Rhyd-y-fro from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
