Common questions in Treowen

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Related advice

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Resealing in Treowen: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Common problems we fix in Treowen

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Damp near the bath
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

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.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
