Trusted bath resealing in Hardington Moor

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Air the room after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Bath resealing in Hardington Moor, done in place

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. Common call-outs are for sealant that’s split or lifting and gaps by the taps, in baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hardington Moor and across Somerset.

Common problems we fix in Hardington Moor

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal
  • Leaks at the edges

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common questions in Hardington Moor

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Hardington Moor and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Is there any odour?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How long will it take?

Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Hardington Moor, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

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

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
