Bath resealing in Twyn-yr-odyn, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and stained silicone, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep the joints dry
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
FAQs for Twyn-yr-odyn
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Twyn-yr-odyn included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
