Bath resealing across Portsmouth: what to expect

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about mould you can’t clean out and a messy previous reseal.

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Signs you need bath resealing

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Look out for these signs:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Questions from Portsmouth

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
