How we handle bath resealing in Greenford

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We are often asked to fix leaks at the edges and an untidy old seal, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Greenford: your questions answered

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will it make a mess?

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

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to around two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
