Bath resealing near Bainton

Bath resealing in Bainton without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you’re dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bainton as everywhere else we work.

Signs you need bath resealing in Bainton

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Resealing in Bainton: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bainton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

See our prices page.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath

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

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Bainton

There is no charge for travel to Bainton. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bainton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Common questions in Bainton

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How long before I can shower?

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

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
