Bath Resealing across Herefordshire

About bath resealing in Herefordshire

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray, in baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

What you’ll pay

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Herefordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Herefordshire as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Signs you need bath resealing

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

Customers usually contact us about:

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

Repair or replace?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • How to care for the finish
  • How long it needs to cure

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not 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.

Herefordshire: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you come to Herefordshire?

We do. We send a technician to Herefordshire for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
