Bath resealing near Goverton

Do you need bath resealing in Goverton?

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Stained silicone
  • Leaks at the edges

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Bath resealing in Goverton without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and leaks at the edges, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Goverton and across Nottinghamshire.

Common questions in Goverton

Do you come to Goverton?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Goverton and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

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

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

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

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Goverton

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Goverton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
