Bath resealing in Burley

Bath resealing in Burley without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help, whatever the material.

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

What we are called out for in Burley

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to Burley. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

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

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

  • We leave the room as we found it

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

FAQs for Burley

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

What areas do you cover?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you cover Burley?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Burley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BH24 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
