Bath resealing in Castle Cary

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Bath resealing in Castle Cary without replacing anything

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. Most jobs take a couple of hours. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and mould you can’t clean out.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Honest limits

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

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean

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

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
