Bath resealing in Cutler Heights, done in place

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s damp near the bath and missing sealant behind the taps, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  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, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Air the room after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What we’re called out for in Cutler Heights

Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

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

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Questions from Cutler Heights

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How long does silicone take to cure?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Cutler Heights.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
