Bath resealing for Bournheath homes

Bath resealing in Bournheath without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with discoloured, yellow sealant and missing sealant behind the taps, we can usually put it right.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Signs you need bath resealing in Bournheath

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps by the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Bournheath

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Why it’s worth resealing in Bournheath

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Bournheath clients choose us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

FAQs for Bournheath

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

How long before I can shower?

Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including 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.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
