Bath resealing in Abshot

Bath resealing at your home in Abshot

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and stained silicone.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Why reseal now?

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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, 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.

What bath resealing costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Abshot. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
