Questions from Crockerton

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

How long does a reseal take?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

How much does bath resealing cost in Crockerton?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Bath resealing at your home in Crockerton

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. If you’re dealing with an untidy old seal and unsealed corners, we can typically put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What bath resealing costs

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

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

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Signs you need bath resealing in Crockerton

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
