How we handle bath resealing in Barton

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s unsealed corners and stained silicone, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Barton

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Barton: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes around two hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Do you need bath resealing in Barton?

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal

Comparing quotes

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who turns up on the day

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
