10 questions to ask before booking

How we handle bath resealing in Trecenydd

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and gaps by the taps, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What bath resealing costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Trecenydd. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

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.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Trecenydd, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Air the room after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Your questions about bath resealing in Trecenydd

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
