Landlords, agents and businesses in East Wickham

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Bath resealing at your home in East Wickham

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about unsealed corners and leaks at the edges.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for East Wickham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Your questions about bath resealing in East Wickham

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you work in East Wickham?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

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

What we work on

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

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

What bath resealing costs

We do not charge extra for travel to East Wickham. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Do you need bath resealing in East Wickham?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Stained silicone
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • An untidy old seal
  • Damp near the bath

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
