Trusted bath resealing in Hartwell

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Bath resealing in Hartwell, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We are often asked to fix black mould in the sealant and stained silicone, in wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Your questions about bath resealing in Hartwell

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What areas do you cover?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Buckinghamshire.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

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.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we are called out for in Hartwell

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps by the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before you book anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
