The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours, tidy-up included.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
Bath resealing in Vaynor without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We’re frequently asked to fix gaps by the taps and a messy previous reseal, across baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Vaynor as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Common problems we fix in Vaynor
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Look out for these signs:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Gaps by the taps
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
Before you book anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Why it’s worth resealing in Vaynor
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Vaynor questions
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you cover the entire of Merthyr Tydfil?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
How much does bath resealing cost in Vaynor?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Vaynor
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
