Bath resealing in Haultwick, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and gaps by the taps, we can normally put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

FAQs for Haultwick

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is there a call-out fee?

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Hertfordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Haultwick

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hertfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
