Bath Resealing for Bratch homes

- Gaps by the taps
- Damp near the bath
How we handle bath resealing in Bratch
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and gaps by the taps, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Bratch questions
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Let steam out after showers
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
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.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
Do you need bath resealing in Bratch?
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Damp near the bath
- A messy previous reseal
