Bath resealing near Rogerstone

Bath resealing in Rogerstone, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and missing sealant behind the taps, we can normally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Rogerstone

You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The material and finish
The colour and finish to match
Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

Any details about the material
A clear, close picture of the problem area
Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Use the extractor fan
Wipe the joints dry after use
Store bottles on a shelf

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
The joint is dried thoroughly.
For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

Clear the area around the damage
Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Why do shower trays crack?

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

FAQs for Rogerstone

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you come to Rogerstone?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Rogerstone from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the whole of Newport?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How long does resealing take?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
