Bath resealing at your home in Aston Heath

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and black mould in the sealant, we can usually put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

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

What we work on

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When to call us in Aston Heath

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps by the taps

FAQs for Aston Heath

Do you work in Aston Heath?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Aston Heath for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Aston Heath?

We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DE6 postcode.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
