Bath resealing for Battle homes

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Bath resealing in Battle without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and unsealed corners, in shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Battle, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TN33 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Questions from Battle

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How much does bath resealing cost in Battle?

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TN33 postcode.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We will give you the curing time, generally around a day.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

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

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

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