Bath resealing at your home in Bridgetown

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about mould you can’t clean out and leaks at the edges.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

Most customers in Bridgetown get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

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 often lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Do you need bath resealing in Bridgetown?

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

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Gaps by the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

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

Materials we work on in Bridgetown

Common questions in Bridgetown

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How long does a reseal take?

Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Resealing in Bridgetown: why it matters

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
