Bath resealing in East Haven without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and mould you can’t clean out, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in East Haven

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What we are called out for in East Haven

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Unsealed corners

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
