Bath resealing near Bibstone

How we handle bath resealing in Bibstone

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our technicians work on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are mould you can’t clean out and damp near the bath.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Bibstone and across Gloucestershire.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bibstone

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Bibstone

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

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Bibstone. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For a price in Bibstone, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page.

Signs you need bath resealing in Bibstone

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Bibstone questions

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Are there extra charges for Bibstone?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you cover Bibstone?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Bibstone. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
