Bath resealing in Guilden Morden, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and missing sealant behind the taps, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Guilden Morden questions

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When to call us in Guilden Morden

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps by the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
