About our bath resealing in Eltham

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and an untidy old seal.

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

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours. We leave the room clean.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Eltham

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

FAQs for Eltham

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What we are called out for in Eltham

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Damp near the bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Everything repaired in place

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
