Bath resealing for Cockley Cley homes

Bath resealing in Cockley Cley, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and black mould in the sealant, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Cockley Cley. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Resealing in Cockley Cley: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Cockley Cley clients choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

When to call us in Cockley Cley

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

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Cockley Cley

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time, normally around a day.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Cockley Cley?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
