Bath resealing near Church Hanborough

Bath resealing at your home in Church Hanborough

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most often call us about a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Church Hanborough: your questions answered

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How long will it take?

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

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What areas do you cover?

All of Oxfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep the joints dry

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets 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.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Why reseal now?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

How we price bath resealing

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
