Bath resealing near Finmere

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

Materials we work on in Finmere

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

Bath resealing in Finmere, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can usually put it right.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Buckinghamshire.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

FAQs for Finmere

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How long does resealing take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.

Why it’s worth resealing in Finmere

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything
  • A fixed quote before you book

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
