Bath resealing in Eaton Bray, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s gaps in the seal and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. 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.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Read our full price list.

The process

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

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

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

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Keep the joints dry

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Eaton Bray questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to Eaton Bray. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What we’re called out for in Eaton Bray

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
