Bath resealing in Blackford, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are black spots in the silicone and missing sealant behind the taps.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Prices and what affects them

There is no charge for travel to Blackford. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Blackford questions

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work in Blackford?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Blackford and the rest of Somerset. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

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

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.

Resealing in Blackford: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business

See our pricing.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep the joints dry

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackford

For anyone letting property in or around Blackford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
