About our bath resealing in East Budleigh

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are discoloured, yellow sealant and black spots in the silicone.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in East Budleigh as everywhere else we work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in East Budleigh

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes around two hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Common problems we fix in East Budleigh

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

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps by the taps

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to look after the finish
  • How your room will be protected

FAQs for East Budleigh

Why does mould come back so fast?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

How long before I can shower?

Typically after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How much does bath resealing cost in East Budleigh?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

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

Materials we work on in East Budleigh

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

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
