Bath resealing at your home in Crowhurst

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Common questions in Crowhurst

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How long does a reseal take?

Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What we are called out for in Crowhurst

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to look after the finish
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
