About our bath resealing in Harrietsham

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include silicone smeared on tiles and gaps in the seal, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What bath resealing costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

When to call us in Harrietsham

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

Get a quote

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Your questions about bath resealing in Harrietsham

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

How long before I can shower?

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

What happens next?

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

Are you accredited?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
