Bath resealing in Branstone

Bath resealing at your home in Branstone

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can generally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

What bath resealing costs

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Branstone

In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What preparation is included

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We leave the room as we found it

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.

Your questions about bath resealing in Branstone

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do you cover the entire of Isle of Wight?

Everywhere in the UK, Branstone included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Branstone.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Landlord and trade work in Branstone

Letting agents often 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.

If you manage property in Branstone, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
