Bath resealing in Catwick without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and sealant that’s split or lifting, in wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Common problems we fix in Catwick

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Gaps by the taps

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Common questions in Catwick

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Usually because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

How long does a reseal take?

Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlord and trade work in Catwick

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Catwick use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
