Trusted bath resealing in Copythorne

Bath resealing in Copythorne without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can normally put it right.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Copythorne: your questions answered

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Hampshire.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Do you need bath resealing in Copythorne?

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  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

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
