Bath resealing in Bentley Heath without replacing anything

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and old sealant that looks dirty.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we are called out for in Bentley Heath

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Damp near the bath
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • A messy previous reseal

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

The price 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Your questions about bath resealing in Bentley Heath

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you work in Bentley Heath?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Bentley Heath and the rest of Greater London. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Are you accredited?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bentley Heath as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
