Need bath resealing in Bromham?

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

How we handle bath resealing in Bromham

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 technicians work on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 normally the cheaper route.

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

FAQs for Bromham

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work in Bromham?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  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
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
