Bath resealing for Burham homes

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How we handle bath resealing in Burham

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and stained silicone, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

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

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

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

Burham questions

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Burham included. Travel is included in the price.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
