Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Air the room after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Bath resealing in Car Colston, done in place

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people contact us are black spots in the silicone and gaps by the taps.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Car Colston and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Car Colston

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Car Colston?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can new silicone go over old?

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

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We will give you the curing time, usually around a day.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

What bath resealing costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, photos 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.
