Bath resealing in Dinton without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about silicone smeared on tiles and leaks at the edges.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire.

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Dinton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Dinton, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Questions from Dinton

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Dinton?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Dinton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Choosing a repair company

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Dinton

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

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Air the room after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
