Bath resealing at your home in Earnley

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and old sealant that looks dirty, on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Resealing in Earnley: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes around two hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Common questions in Earnley

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

What areas do you cover?

All of West Sussex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in West Sussex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

What we are called out for in Earnley

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to care for the finish
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether they match the colour on site
