Trusted bath resealing in Church Street

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Bath resealing in Church Street without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect 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 basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are silicone coming away from the tiles and gaps by the taps.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Your questions about bath resealing in Church Street

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Church Street?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What we’re called out for in Church Street

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

  • Aftercare advice
  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why it’s worth resealing in Church Street

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Landlords, agents and businesses in Church Street

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

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

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

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

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

  • Basins & vanity units
