Trusted bath resealing in Codicote

About our bath resealing in Codicote

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for silicone smeared on tiles and mould you can’t clean out, across baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath
  • Hidden water damage

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Codicote

Why it’s worth resealing in Codicote

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One visit for most repairs

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Related advice

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Codicote

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in Codicote

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Damp near the bath
