How we handle bath resealing in Swffryd
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most often call us about black mould in the sealant and silicone smeared on tiles.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Common problems we fix in Swffryd
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Damp near the bath
- Unsealed corners
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How changes to the job are handled
- How to look after the finish
Landlord and trade work in Swffryd
If you manage property in Swffryd, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Let steam out after showers
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

What else we do in Swffryd
Common questions in Swffryd
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We will give you the curing time.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What affects the price in Swffryd
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
