Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Ynysawdre, Bridgend
Our repair technicians come to Ynysawdre for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Let steam out after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
How we handle bath resealing in Ynysawdre
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We are frequently asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and gaps in the seal, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Fixed prices from your pictures
Take a look at our pricing.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Ynysawdre questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Do you come to Ynysawdre?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ynysawdre from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What bath resealing costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Ynysawdre. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The material
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
If you are in Ynysawdre and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
