Bath resealing in Alfington, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and damp near the bath, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Alfington and across Devon.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Alfington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our full price list.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

FAQs for Alfington

Do you work in Alfington?

We do. We send a technician to Alfington for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

What areas do you cover?

All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Alfington

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal

Comparing quotes

  • Aftercare advice
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who turns up on the day
