Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Bath resealing in Chinbrook, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for water getting behind the bath or tray and missing sealant behind the taps, across kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Your questions about bath resealing in Chinbrook

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover Chinbrook?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Chinbrook from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What does bath resealing cost?

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

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Hidden water damage

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Chinbrook

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chinbrook

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chinbrook as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Chinbrook, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we are called out for in Chinbrook

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Look out for these signs:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry

Why it’s worth resealing in Chinbrook

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Chinbrook. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
