Bath resealing near Brize Norton

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Bath resealing in Brize Norton without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and gaps by the taps.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

What affects the price in Brize Norton

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Brize Norton

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What we’re called out for in Brize Norton

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How long it needs to cure
