Bath resealing near Coxheath

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

Bath resealing at your home in Coxheath

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and black spots in the silicone, we can generally put it right, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

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

Materials we work on in Coxheath

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

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Your questions about bath resealing in Coxheath

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in Coxheath

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
