Trusted bath resealing in Burtle

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Bath resealing in Burtle without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and missing sealant behind the taps, across kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave 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. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Common questions in Burtle

How long will it take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Burtle. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Signs you need bath resealing in Burtle

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black spots in the silicone

What your quote should include

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
