Need bath resealing in Broadshard?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Bath resealing in Broadshard without replacing anything

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Our technicians work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common problems we fix in Broadshard

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Damp near the bath
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why Broadshard customers choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Your questions about bath resealing in Broadshard

How long does a reseal take?

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

Do you come to Broadshard?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Broadshard. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Broadshard.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Broadshard

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

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

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
