About our bath resealing in Tir-y-dail

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and sealant that’s split or lifting.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Tir-y-dail and across Carmarthenshire.

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Resealing in Tir-y-dail: why it matters

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why Tir-y-dail clients choose us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in Tir-y-dail

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Carmarthenshire.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Tir-y-dail?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your SA18 postcode.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Common problems we fix in Tir-y-dail

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black mould in the sealant

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
