Bath resealing in Greatstone-on-Sea 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. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about damp near the bath and unsealed corners.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything

Take a look at our full price list.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it 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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

FAQs for Greatstone-on-Sea

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How long will it take?

Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Greatstone-on-Sea. Prices don’t change with location.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Greatstone-on-Sea

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Greatstone-on-Sea

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

If you are in Greatstone-on-Sea and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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.
