Trusted bath resealing in Tal-y-bont

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SY24 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How we handle bath resealing in Tal-y-bont

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths, and people most often call us about damp near the bath and stained silicone.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Common problems we fix in Tal-y-bont

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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.
