About our bath resealing in Fawdington

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are stained silicone and sealant that’s split or lifting.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  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

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What bath resealing costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in Fawdington

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

FAQs for Fawdington

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Fawdington.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Common problems we fix in Fawdington

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • How to care for the finish
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
