Bath resealing near Ham

Bath resealing at your home in Ham

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our technicians work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are missing sealant behind the taps and gaps in the seal.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Your questions about bath resealing in Ham

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

How long before I can shower?

Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

How long does a reseal take?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Ham and the rest of Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

When to call us in Ham

Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black spots in the silicone

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again
