Bath resealing for East Hill homes

Bath resealing at your home in East Hill

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 silicone smeared on tiles and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units alike.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

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

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

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, once the joint is completely dry.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

FAQs for East Hill

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in East Hill?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you come to East Hill?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to East Hill and the rest of Kent. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What we are called out for in East Hill

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in East Hill

If you manage property in East Hill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Why it’s worth resealing in East Hill

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
