Bath resealing in Colcot, done in place

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours. If you are dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and gaps in the seal, we can help, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Colcot questions

Do you work in Colcot?

We do. We send a technician to Colcot for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Can landlords book you?

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

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Colcot and the rest of the Vale of Glamorgan. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • 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 quote without visiting.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

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, once the joint is completely dry.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Do you need bath resealing in Colcot?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
