Bath resealing for Dunn Street homes

Bath resealing at your home in Dunn Street

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone smeared on tiles, in basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Dunn Street and across Medway.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Common questions in Dunn Street

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you come to Dunn Street?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Dunn Street from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

How much does bath resealing cost in Dunn Street?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Will you leave a mess?

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

What we are called out for in Dunn Street

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Stained silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What bath resealing costs

We do not charge extra for travel to Dunn Street. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Dunn Street. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Dunn Street, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunn Street

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dunn Street as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Resealing in Dunn Street: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
