Bath resealing in Swansea, done in place
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Common call-outs are for silicone smeared on tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.
FAQs for Swansea
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Air the room after use
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
If you manage property in Swansea, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Common problems we fix in Swansea
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Leaks at the edges
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- How the colour is matched
- If travel is included in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can

How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
