Bath resealing near Dendron

How we handle bath resealing in Dendron

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for leaks at the edges and missing sealant behind the taps, across baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Dendron questions

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How long does a reseal take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure 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, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice

Signs you need bath resealing in Dendron

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why Dendron customers choose us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Everything repaired in place

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
