Bath resealing in Drayton

About our bath resealing in Drayton

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  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

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Drayton, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Signs you need bath resealing in Drayton

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Drayton

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Drayton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Why it’s worth resealing in Drayton

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Drayton questions

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do you come to Drayton?

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

What happens next?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
