Bath resealing at your home in Upper Abercanaid
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and stained silicone.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Store bottles on a shelf
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
For a price in Upper Abercanaid, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

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

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

When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
