Bath resealing at your home in Fittleworth

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, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with mould you can’t clean out and an untidy old seal, we can help.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

Do you need bath resealing in Fittleworth?

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fittleworth

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For anyone letting property in or around Fittleworth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Fittleworth questions

How long does resealing take?

Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you come to Fittleworth?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Fittleworth and the rest of West Sussex. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
