Bath resealing near Batcombe

Bath resealing in Batcombe, done in place

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for black spots in the silicone and a messy previous reseal, in shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Questions from Batcombe

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How long before I can shower?

Generally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Honest limits

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

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

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

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What we’re called out for in Batcombe

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Damp near the bath
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps by the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the joints dry

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
