Bath resealing at your home in Hardley

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. If you are dealing with gaps by the taps and stained silicone, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hardley as everywhere else we work.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. 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, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hardley, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

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

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Hardley

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Damp near the bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Resealing in Hardley: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place
  • A fixed quote before you book

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Hardley

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hardley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

For a price in Hardley, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Your questions about bath resealing in Hardley

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How much does bath resealing cost in Hardley?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you work in Hardley?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hardley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How long does a reseal take?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
