How we handle bath resealing in Copyholt

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. Typical jobs include leaks at the edges and silicone coming away from the tiles, across shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

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

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  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

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Signs you need bath resealing in Copyholt

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • If travel is included in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Questions from Copyholt

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Copyholt.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Will you leave a mess?

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