Bath resealing in Coursehorn

About our bath resealing in Coursehorn

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Coursehorn and across Kent.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What we are called out for in Coursehorn

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

Common reasons people in Coursehorn contact us include:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Choosing a repair company

Coursehorn: your questions answered

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How long does a reseal take?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Coursehorn. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

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

Materials we work on in Coursehorn

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

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
