Bath resealing near Bourne Vale

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

About our bath resealing in Bourne Vale

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about old sealant that looks dirty and silicone smeared on tiles.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What bath resealing costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Bourne Vale. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Bourne Vale, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Bourne Vale: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Signs you need bath resealing in Bourne Vale

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Black spots in the silicone
