Chestnut Street questions

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kent.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

What we are called out for in Chestnut Street

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Unsealed corners
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Why it’s worth resealing in Chestnut Street

Resealing is routine maintenance. 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, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our full price list.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will 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. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

For a price in Chestnut Street, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Advice

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
