About our bath resealing in Allesley

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We’re frequently asked to fix stained silicone and an untidy old seal, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What affects the price in Allesley

We don’t charge extra for travel to Allesley. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Allesley as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

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

Do you need bath resealing in Allesley?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Damp near the bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, 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. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
