About our bath resealing in Gilbert Street

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for discoloured, yellow sealant and leaks at the edges, in shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Gilbert Street and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Gilbert Street: your questions answered

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What information do you need?

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

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your SO24 postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

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

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

Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Gilbert Street included. Travel is included in the price.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SO24 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When to call us in Gilbert Street

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal

Choosing a repair company

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Gilbert Street

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area

Read our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
