About our bath resealing in Ynysddu

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and black mould in the sealant.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Ynysddu. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ynysddu. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price.

When to call us in Ynysddu

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Stained silicone
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Use the extractor fan

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes around two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Ynysddu, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Ynysddu: your questions answered

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

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

How long does resealing take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Ynysddu?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Do the materials smell?

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

Do you cover Ynysddu?

We do. We send a technician to Ynysddu for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Why it’s worth resealing in Ynysddu

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
