Bath resealing in Felsham

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Bath resealing in Felsham without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Resealing in Felsham: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • One price list for the whole UK

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Felsham as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How we price bath resealing

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can

Questions from Felsham

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Are you accredited?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Felsham?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

When to call us in Felsham

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Stained silicone
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How to look after the finish
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

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. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
