How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Do you need bath resealing in Great Bowden?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Why it’s worth resealing in Great Bowden

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Great Bowden: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

How we price bath resealing

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 typically cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
