Bath resealing at your home in Blackawton

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and silicone smeared on tiles.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Questions from Blackawton

Do you come to Blackawton?

We do. We send a technician to Blackawton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Common problems we fix in Blackawton

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

  • Mould you cannot clean out

  • Damp near the bath
  • Stained silicone

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
