About our bath resealing in Coundon

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for leaks at the edges and discoloured, yellow sealant, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Coundon. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CV6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Coundon

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

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Questions from Coundon

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Coundon

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
