About our bath resealing in Custom House

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and old sealant that looks dirty.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Custom House and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common problems we fix in Custom House

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

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

  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps by the taps

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Resealing in Custom House: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
