Bath resealing at your home in Trevowah
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Trevowah questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What else we do in Trevowah
Landlords, agents and businesses in Trevowah
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trevowah use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Common problems we fix in Trevowah
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Common reasons people in Trevowah contact us include:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps in the seal
- Black spots in the silicone
- Stained silicone
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Aftercare advice
- How long it needs to cure
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Why it’s worth resealing in Trevowah
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
