Need bath resealing in Dial Post?

Why it’s worth resealing in Dial Post

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Work done at your home or business

Bath resealing in Dial Post without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We’re frequently asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, across kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

Signs you need bath resealing in Dial Post

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps by the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Dial Post

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Questions from Dial Post

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do you cover Dial Post?

We do. We send a technician to Dial Post for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
