Bath resealing for Church Stretton homes

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

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

If you’re dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help, whatever the material.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Everything repaired in place

Questions from Church Stretton

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Common problems we fix in Church Stretton

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
