Bath resealing in Crowborough, 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. Typical jobs include sealant that’s split or lifting and discoloured, yellow sealant, on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

Crowborough: your questions answered

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

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

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Can I fix it myself?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we price bath resealing

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Crowborough, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

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, for the same reason.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

For anyone letting property in or around Crowborough, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
