Need bath resealing in Roath?

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Bath resealing in Roath without replacing anything

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Roath. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Roath: your questions answered

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Cardiff. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

When to call us in Roath

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
