Bath resealing in Cottisford

Bath resealing in Cottisford, done in place

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and old sealant that looks dirty, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cottisford as everywhere else we work.

Common questions in Cottisford

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Cottisford included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

When to call us in Cottisford

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • An untidy old seal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before you book anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Why it’s worth resealing in Cottisford

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cottisford

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Cottisford

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

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
