Bath resealing for Gardham homes

About our bath resealing in Gardham

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are black spots in the silicone and leaks at the edges.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes around two hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  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

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What affects the price in Gardham

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gardham

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gardham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

When to call us in Gardham

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Stained silicone
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • An untidy old seal

What to look for in a quote
