Bath resealing near Frogmore

Bath resealing at your home in Frogmore

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Why it’s worth resealing in Frogmore

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Questions from Frogmore

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for around two hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
