How we handle bath resealing in Butleigh

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and sealant that’s split or lifting.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

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

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Butleigh

Landlord and trade work in Butleigh

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Butleigh questions

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How long does silicone take to cure?

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

Do you come to Butleigh?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Butleigh. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Do you need bath resealing in Butleigh?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before booking

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area

See our pricing.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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.
