About our bath resealing in Cliffe Woods

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and mould you can’t clean out, in basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

What we are called out for in Cliffe Woods

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • An untidy old seal

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Cliffe Woods questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Are there extra charges for Cliffe Woods?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Cliffe Woods, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Air the room after use

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
