Trusted bath resealing in Cressage

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Bath resealing in Cressage, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re often asked to fix a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage

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

What we work on

  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed 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 frequently lifts.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

When to call us in Cressage

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black mould in the sealant

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Cressage

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Cressage?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
