Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Bath resealing in Chapmore End without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and an untidy old seal, across baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common problems we fix in Chapmore End

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before you book

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Chapmore End

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Why it’s worth resealing in Chapmore End

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Chapmore End

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your SG12 postcode.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
