Bath resealing near Gretton

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

About our bath resealing in Gretton

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are silicone smeared on tiles and black mould in the sealant.

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

Landlord and trade work in Gretton

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Gretton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Gretton

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

How we price bath resealing

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gretton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Most clients in Gretton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Common problems we fix in Gretton

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Damp near the bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours. We leave the room clean.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
