Do you need bath resealing in Charlwood?

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

  • Unsealed corners
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Charlwood

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Charlwood clients choose us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

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

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charlwood use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Charlwood questions

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Charlwood?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

Do I have to be there?

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

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can I fix it myself?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
