Bath resealing in Coleford

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we handle bath resealing in Coleford

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about a messy previous reseal and unsealed corners.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Signs you need bath resealing in Coleford

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

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

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel

FAQs for Coleford

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BA3 postcode.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Coleford

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Landlord and trade work in Coleford

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Everything repaired in place
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit
