Bath resealing in Aldborough Hatch without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s an untidy old seal and damp near the bath, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint 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, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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