- Stained silicone
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Air the room after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
How we handle bath resealing in Talybont
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and leaks at the edges, we can typically put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Talybont
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps by the taps
- Stained silicone
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What preparation is included

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed 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, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
