Bath resealing in Blackstone

Bath resealing in Blackstone without replacing anything

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and old sealant that looks dirty, we can generally put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackstone

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

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.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BN5 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Blackstone. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Blackstone

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

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

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Let steam out after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

Questions from Blackstone

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Blackstone?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
