Bath resealing for Cridling Stubbs homes

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

About our bath resealing in Cridling Stubbs

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common questions in Cridling Stubbs

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Cridling Stubbs. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
