Bath resealing in Broyle Side

Bath resealing in Broyle Side, done in place

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. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are sealant that’s split or lifting and silicone smeared on tiles.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Broyle Side

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broyle Side as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we are called out for in Broyle Side

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Stained silicone

  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Broyle Side questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

How long does silicone take to cure?

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

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Broyle Side, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
