Bath resealing for Fulbourn homes

Bath resealing in Fulbourn, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can generally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fulbourn as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we’re called out for in Fulbourn

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Common reasons people in Fulbourn contact us include:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Why it’s worth resealing in Fulbourn

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Air the room after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

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

FAQs for Fulbourn

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

What do you need from me?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
