Need bath resealing in Barrington?

What we cannot put right

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

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

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

Materials we repair

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

Bath resealing in Barrington without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with damp near the bath and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms alike.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cambridgeshire.

Barrington: your questions answered

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Barrington?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your CB22 postcode.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

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

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Barrington

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
