Bath resealing for Chippenham homes

Bath resealing in Chippenham without replacing anything

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Your questions about bath resealing in Chippenham

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you come to Chippenham?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Chippenham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Do you need bath resealing in Chippenham?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

Resealing in Chippenham: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Chippenham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Use the extractor fan

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Landlord and trade work in Chippenham

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chippenham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
