Bath resealing in Dodford, done in place

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and gaps by the taps, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

Do you need bath resealing in Dodford?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black mould in the sealant

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Dodford: your questions answered

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the whole of Northamptonshire?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How we price bath resealing

There’s no charge for travel to Dodford. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not 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 reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
