Bath resealing in Trevenen Bal, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about an untidy old seal and black mould in the sealant.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

When to call us in Trevenen Bal

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

Get a quote

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Common questions in Trevenen Bal

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. 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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
