How we handle bath resealing in Chessetts Wood

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, in basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Warwickshire.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Common problems we fix in Chessetts Wood

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Questions from Chessetts Wood

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

How much does bath resealing cost in Chessetts Wood?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your B94 postcode.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Resealing in Chessetts Wood: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Chessetts Wood

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
