Bath resealing in Great Stonar

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What bath resealing costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Great Stonar. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, pictures 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Read our full price list.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Let steam out after showers

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Questions from Great Stonar

Do you do work for letting agents?

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
