Bath resealing for Hartley Wespall homes

Hartley Wespall questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Bath resealing in Hartley Wespall without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can typically put it right.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Hartley Wespall

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

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Resealing in Hartley Wespall: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to Hartley Wespall. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
