Bath resealing for Duddleswell homes

How we handle bath resealing in Duddleswell

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s gaps in the seal and a messy previous reseal, we can help.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: 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 quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Duddleswell

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We will give you the curing time, generally around a day.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you cover Duddleswell?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Duddleswell and the rest of East Sussex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Duddleswell.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Are you accredited?

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

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

When to call us in Duddleswell

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Why it’s worth resealing in Duddleswell

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is 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 fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, 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.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
