Bath resealing in Tycoch

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Air the room after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

About our bath resealing in Tycoch

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and leaks at the edges, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

How to compare quotes

Questions from Tycoch

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tycoch

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Swansea and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Tycoch

  • Baths

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
