Bath resealing for Dicklant homes

Bath resealing in Dicklant without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for leaks at the edges and an untidy old seal, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Dicklant

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

What bath resealing costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Dicklant

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Why reseal now?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
