Resealing in Bournes Green: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Bath resealing in Bournes Green without replacing anything

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. If you are dealing with damp near the bath and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can generally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bournes Green

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bournes Green use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

When to call us in Bournes Green

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

The things customers usually mention when they call are:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps in the seal

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long it needs to cure
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Bournes Green

We charge the same across the UK, including Bournes Green. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Bournes Green questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Gloucestershire.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Generally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

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