Bath resealing near Elsted Marsh

Do you need bath resealing in Elsted Marsh?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Unsealed corners

How to compare quotes

How we handle bath resealing in Elsted Marsh

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. Typical jobs include damp near the bath and black spots in the silicone, in kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Take a look at our prices page.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Elsted Marsh questions

Are there extra charges for Elsted Marsh?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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