Bath resealing for Chatteris homes

Bath resealing in Chatteris, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for discoloured, yellow sealant and black spots in the silicone, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Chatteris: your questions answered

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Prices and what affects them

There is no charge for travel to Chatteris. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Why it’s worth resealing in Chatteris

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
