Bath Resealing in Kent

How bath resealing works in Kent

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most frequently call us about old sealant that looks dirty and missing sealant behind the taps.

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

What affects the price in Kent

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

• Access to the area
• What the surface is made of
• Whether we combine several jobs
• Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

• Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
• The material, if you know it
• Any earlier repairs or coatings
• One picture of the whole bath or shower

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
