Bath resealing in Bishops Cannings

Bath resealing at your home in Bishops Cannings

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with unsealed corners and black mould in the sealant, we can usually put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Bishops Cannings

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Do you cover the whole of Wiltshire?

Across the UK, and that includes Bishops Cannings. Prices do not change with location.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common problems we fix in Bishops Cannings

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps by the taps

10 questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Bishops Cannings, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. 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 price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
