- A messy previous reseal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Leaks at the edges
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Bath resealing in Ystrad, done in place
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and people most often call us about unsealed corners and mould you can’t clean out.

Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Same prices wherever you are

Your questions about bath resealing in Ystrad
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Ystrad is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Ystrad
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- A messy previous reseal
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether they match the colour on site

What else we do in Ystrad
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
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 is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
