Bath resealing for Five Wents homes

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

How we handle bath resealing in Five Wents

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Five Wents

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Five Wents. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Landlord and trade work in Five Wents

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

FAQs for Five Wents

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

The whole UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

What affects the price in Five Wents

There’s no charge for travel to Five Wents. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  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

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
