How we handle bath resealing in Brettenham

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s damp near the bath and gaps in the seal, we can typically put it right, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price bath resealing

There’s no charge for travel to Brettenham. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you are in Brettenham and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

The process

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Brettenham questions

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is my repair covered?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us.

Do you work in Brettenham?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Brettenham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

What we work on

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