Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

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

How we handle bath resealing in Charlton

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Our technicians work on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and mould you can’t clean out.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

When we’d advise against a repair

When to call us in Charlton

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • Black mould in the sealant

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How to look after the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the whole UK

Take a look at our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Charlton: your questions answered

How much does bath resealing cost in Charlton?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover the whole of Surrey?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do the materials smell?

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

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Charlton

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Surrey and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
