Bath resealing near Cooper Turning

Bath resealing in Cooper Turning, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and missing sealant behind the taps, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Landlord and trade work in Cooper Turning

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we are called out for in Cooper Turning

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Questions from Cooper Turning

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

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 work takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Cooper Turning. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
