Bath resealing in Brockley

Bath resealing in Brockley without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and leaks at the edges, in basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in Brockley, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we’re called out for in Brockley

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Unsealed corners
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to care for the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Let steam out after showers

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

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

Brockley questions

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SE4 postcode.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Greater London.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Brockley

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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.

Baths

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

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
