About our bath resealing in Tirymynach

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and damp near the bath, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When to call us in Tirymynach

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.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Stained silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • A messy previous reseal

Your questions about bath resealing in Tirymynach

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How much does bath resealing cost in Tirymynach?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

How long will it take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Why it’s worth resealing in Tirymynach

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area

Read our pricing.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What affects the price in Tirymynach

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

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

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

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
