Bath resealing for Friday Hill homes

About our bath resealing in Friday Hill

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and a messy previous reseal, in kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

10 questions to ask before you book

Friday Hill questions

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your E4 postcode.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Friday Hill

For anyone letting property in or around Friday Hill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Friday Hill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
