Resealing in Hawkchurch: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Bath resealing in Hawkchurch, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Honest limits

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

  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Hawkchurch

Signs you need bath resealing in Hawkchurch

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
