Trusted bath resealing in Clapham Green

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Bath resealing in Clapham Green, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and damp near the bath, we can typically put it right, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Questions from Clapham Green

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Which areas do you work in?

All of North Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What affects the price in Clapham Green

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Clapham Green, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take around two hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
