Bath resealing in Coombe

Bath resealing at your home in Coombe

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are gaps in the seal and water getting behind the bath or tray.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Questions from Coombe

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you come to Coombe?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Coombe. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time, generally around a day.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Aftercare advice

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
