Bath resealing for Trosnant homes

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Use the extractor fan

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Do you need bath resealing in Trosnant?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps by the taps
  • An untidy old seal

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Trosnant: your questions answered

Do you come to Trosnant?

We do. We send a technician to Trosnant for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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