Need bath resealing in Eddington?

Can I fix it myself?

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 normally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Bath resealing at your home in Eddington

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Eddington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Eddington. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Eddington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing 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 a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Your questions about bath resealing in Eddington

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Do you need bath resealing in Eddington?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Unsealed corners
