Bath resealing in Hambridge, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Hambridge, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

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

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

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TA10 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

FAQs for Hambridge

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Hambridge included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

When can you do it?

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

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
