Bath resealing for Avonmouth homes

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Bath resealing in Avonmouth, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about stained silicone and an untidy old seal.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Common problems we fix in Avonmouth

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Gaps by the taps

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
