Bath resealing in Catherine-de-Barnes

How we handle bath resealing in Catherine-de-Barnes

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

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

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow around two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Common questions in Catherine-de-Barnes

Are there extra charges for Catherine-de-Barnes?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
