Bath resealing in Blackwell, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. If you are dealing with discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps in the seal, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Blackwell: your questions answered

Can new silicone go over old?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

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

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Open a window after bathing

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

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

When to call us in Blackwell

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackwell

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

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.
