Bath resealing for Upper Maes-coed homes

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

About our bath resealing in Upper Maes-coed

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and old sealant that looks dirty.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Questions from Upper Maes-coed

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Upper Maes-coed?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upper Maes-coed as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.

  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Resealing in Upper Maes-coed: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No extra charge for your area

Take a look at our pricing.

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your HR2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep the joints dry

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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