What we are called out for in Skewen

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Resealing in Skewen: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Take a look at our pricing.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Hidden water damage

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Skewen

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

If you manage property in Skewen, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common questions in Skewen

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Skewen?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are there extra charges for Skewen?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

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.
