How we handle bath resealing in Fawler

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are damp near the bath and mould you can’t clean out.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What we are called out for in Fawler

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Fawler questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you charge for travel?

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

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

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

Materials we repair

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

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fawler. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  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, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your OX7 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
