Bath resealing in Abenhall

Bath resealing in Abenhall, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are missing sealant behind the taps and an untidy old seal.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Can I fix it myself?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

Questions from Abenhall

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GL17 postcode.

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

We cover the whole UK, including Abenhall and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Common problems we fix in Abenhall

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Abenhall

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
