Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Bath resealing at your home in Bardfield Saling

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with 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 damp near the bath, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Signs you need bath resealing in Bardfield Saling

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black mould in the sealant

Before booking anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

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

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Bardfield Saling questions

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do you work in Bardfield Saling?

We do. We send a technician to Bardfield Saling for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage

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

Surfaces we repair

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