Bath resealing in Bow without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s unsealed corners and old sealant that looks dirty, we can usually put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried 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, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Bow: your questions answered

Do you work in Bow?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Bow. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Signs you need bath resealing in Bow

In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Unsealed corners

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bow

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How we price bath resealing

There’s no area surcharge for Bow. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
