Bath resealing near Elsdon

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Work done at your home or business

How we handle bath resealing in Elsdon

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We are frequently asked to fix black spots in the silicone and gaps in the seal, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common problems we fix in Elsdon

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Elsdon

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there a guarantee?

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

What affects the price in Elsdon

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Elsdon. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

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