Bath resealing in Y Ferwig

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

About our bath resealing in Y Ferwig

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and missing sealant behind the taps.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When to call us in Y Ferwig

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Y Ferwig: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Y Ferwig included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can you do it?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Resealing in Y Ferwig: 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. 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.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our full price list.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Y Ferwig, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths

What affects the price in Y Ferwig

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

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 without visiting.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Air the room after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
