About our bath resealing in Acton Scott

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 repair technicians work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are discoloured, yellow sealant and silicone smeared on tiles.

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

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, tidy-up included.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Your questions about bath resealing in Acton Scott

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You’ll get the curing time from us, usually around a day.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Common problems we fix in Acton Scott

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

How to compare quotes

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we price bath resealing

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For anyone letting property in or around Acton Scott, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
