Trusted bath resealing in Botolphs

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Bath resealing in Botolphs without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We are often asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf

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.

Do you need bath resealing in Botolphs?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath

Choosing a repair company

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  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. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Prices and what affects them

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Any details about the material

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. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

FAQs for Botolphs

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How long will it take?

Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Is it messy?

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

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Resealing in Botolphs: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
