Bath resealing for Bodle Street Green homes

How we handle bath resealing in Bodle Street Green

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for discoloured, yellow sealant and silicone smeared on tiles, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we’re called out for in Bodle Street Green

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Leaks at the edges

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

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

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

Questions from Bodle Street Green

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Is there a guarantee?

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

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the curing time from us, usually around a day.

Do you work in Bodle Street Green?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  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. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
