Bath resealing at your home in Compton Martin

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and black spots in the silicone.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No extra charge for your area

Questions from Compton Martin

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us, typically around a day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Compton Martin

  • Black mould in the sealant

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Let steam out after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Landlord and trade work in Compton Martin

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Compton Martin, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
