Need bath resealing in Dane End?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we handle bath resealing in Dane End

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and leaks at the edges, we can help, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire.

Dane End questions

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Dane End. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Dane End

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • An untidy old seal

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Dane End

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dane End
