Bath resealing for Ammerham homes

Bath resealing at your home in Ammerham

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are unsealed corners and black mould in the sealant.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

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

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

Ammerham questions

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TA20 postcode.

What affects the price in Ammerham

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When to call us in Ammerham

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.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
