Bath resealing for Forestside homes

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Bath resealing in Forestside without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: 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. Whether it’s an untidy old seal and gaps by the taps, we can usually put it right.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Questions from Forestside

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
