Bath resealing in Chawton without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We are frequently asked to fix an untidy old seal and water getting behind the bath or tray, across wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Do you need bath resealing in Chawton?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Common reasons people in Chawton contact us include:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Unsealed corners
  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlord and trade work in Chawton

For anyone letting property in or around Chawton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Chawton questions

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?

We work UK-wide, so Chawton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How long will it take?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

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

We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GU34 postcode.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Chawton. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
