Bath resealing for Benover homes

Bath resealing in Benover, done in place

We cut out all of the old sealant, 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. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and leaks at the edges, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Landlord and trade work in Benover

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Resealing in Benover: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Common questions in Benover

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Prices and what affects them

There is no area surcharge for Benover. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
