How we handle bath resealing in Waen

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms, and people most often call us about an untidy old seal and missing sealant behind the taps.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Why it’s worth resealing in Waen

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common questions in Waen

Are there extra charges for Waen?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

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.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Waen

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps by the taps

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waen as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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