Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Bath resealing at your home in Alverdiscott

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We are frequently asked to fix silicone smeared on tiles and old sealant that looks dirty, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

What it costs 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 you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EX31 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. 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.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Alverdiscott: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Alverdiscott. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
