Bath resealing near Etton

Bath resealing in Etton without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are discoloured, yellow sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Etton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Etton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Etton questions

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with 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. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

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

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. 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.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Etton

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Stained silicone

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
