A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

Bath resealing at your home in Copley Hill

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s mould you can’t clean out and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, 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.

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

What we’re called out for in Copley Hill

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Common reasons people in Copley Hill contact us are:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Unsealed corners
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to Copley Hill. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Common questions in Copley Hill

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

How long does silicone take to cure?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

How long does resealing take?

Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
