Bath resealing near Calthorpe

Bath resealing at your home in Calthorpe

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with black mould in the sealant and unsealed corners, we can normally put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Resealing in Calthorpe: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

When to call us in Calthorpe

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Common reasons people in Calthorpe contact us are:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • An untidy old seal

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again

Common questions in Calthorpe

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are you accredited?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How long before I can shower?

Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Calthorpe. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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