Bath resealing near Binegar

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Bath resealing in Binegar, 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. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and old sealant that looks dirty, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

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

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Air the room after use

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

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 usually the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Do you need bath resealing in Binegar?

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Binegar

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

FAQs for Binegar

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
