When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Bath resealing at your home in Combe

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Combe and across Oxfordshire.

FAQs for Combe

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Do you work in Combe?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Combe. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Do you need bath resealing in Combe?

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

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

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • An untidy old seal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps by the taps

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re 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.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep the joints dry

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Combe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price
