Trusted bath resealing in Brimpton Common

Bath resealing in Brimpton Common without replacing anything

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. Typical jobs include unsealed corners and sealant that’s split or lifting, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet rooms

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

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Signs you need bath resealing in Brimpton Common

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Common questions in Brimpton Common

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Brimpton Common?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How long will it take?

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

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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 typically the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
