Bath resealing for Draycot Foliat homes

Bath resealing in Draycot Foliat without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about old sealant that looks dirty and black mould in the sealant.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Do you need bath resealing in Draycot Foliat?

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to Draycot Foliat. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Questions from Draycot Foliat

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you cover the entire of Swindon?

Across the UK, and that includes Draycot Foliat. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Swindon.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Resealing in Draycot Foliat: why it matters

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
