Bath resealing in Bache

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Bath resealing at your home in Bache

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We are often asked to fix damp near the bath and gaps by the taps, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean 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.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bache. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Bache

Is there a guarantee?

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

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
