FAQs for Hatt

Do you come to Hatt?

We do. We send a technician to Hatt for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Hatt?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PL12 postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

How we handle bath resealing in Hatt

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with unsealed corners and black spots in the silicone, we can help, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Hatt?

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
