Bath resealing in Brabourne Lees, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s stained silicone and mould you can’t clean out, we can help.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Brabourne Lees and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

When to call us in Brabourne Lees

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

Why it’s worth resealing in Brabourne Lees

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the whole UK

Read our prices page.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Brabourne Lees

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

We work UK-wide, so Brabourne Lees is covered. Prices do not change with location.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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