Bath resealing in Tal-y-bont, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with discoloured, yellow sealant and leaks at the edges, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tal-y-bont and across Gwynedd.

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Tal-y-bont, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tal-y-bont as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
When to call us in Tal-y-bont
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- An untidy old seal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Sealant that’s split or lifting

What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
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 will reply with a fixed price.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Air the room after use
- Keep the joints dry
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
FAQs for Tal-y-bont
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Gwynedd, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

What else we do in Tal-y-bont
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
