Trusted bath resealing in Charlton

Bath resealing at your home in Charlton

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What we can’t put right

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

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

FAQs for Charlton

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will the price change on the day?

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

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Charlton. Prices don’t change with location.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

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.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Air the room after use
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

Landlord and trade work in Charlton

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
