Bath resealing for Bugbrooke homes

Bath resealing at your home in Bugbrooke

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you’re dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

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.

Common problems we fix in Bugbrooke

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

What we work on

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

FAQs for Bugbrooke

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bugbrooke.

Is it messy?

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

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Air the room after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
