Trusted bath resealing in Artington

Bath resealing in Artington without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Gaps in the seal

How to compare quotes

Artington questions

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you cover the entire of Surrey?

Across the UK, so Artington is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How we price bath resealing

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Artington

For anyone letting property in or around Artington, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
